Original amount 120 and new amount is 30. what is the amount of decrease and percent of decrease

Mathematics

To find how much it was decreased by, subtract the original amount by the new amount:

120 - 30 = 90
So 120 was decreased by <u>90</u><u>
</u>
First we find what percent 30 is of 120. We do this by dividing the new amount by the original amount, and then multiply by 100 to change the answer from a decimal to a percentage.

30 / 120 x 100 = 25%

This tells us that 30 is 25% of 120. Now we subtract 100% by 25%, to get the percentage decrease:

100 - 25 = 75%
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Answer:
So the amount of decrease was 90 
And the percentage decrease was 75%

The factor of the polynomial, the area of the pool and the simplified expression are all algebraic expressions

<h3>How to simplify the expressions?</h3>

<u>Factor of the polynomial</u>

The polynomial is given as:

2x^3 + 6x^2 + 6x + 18

Factor out 2

2x^3 + 6x^2 + 6x + 18 = 2(x^3 + 3x^2 + 3x + 9)

Factorize

2x^3 + 6x^2 + 6x + 18 = 2(x^2(x + 3) + 3(x + 3))

Factor out x + 3

2x^3 + 6x^2 + 6x + 18 = 2(x^2 + 3)(x + 3)

Expand

2x^3 + 6x^2 + 6x + 18 = (2x^2 + 6)(x + 3)

Hence, 2x^2 + 6 is a factor of the polynomial 2x^3 + 6x^2 + 6x + 18

<u>The length of the pool</u>

The given parameters are:

Area = 2x^3 - 29x + 12

Width = x + 4

The length is calculated as:

Length = Area/Width

This gives

Length = 2x^2 - 29x + 12/x + 4

Factorize the numerator

Length = (2x^2 - 8x + 3)(x + 4)/x + 4

Cancel out x + 4

Length = 2x^2 - 8x + 3

Hence, the length of the pool is 2x^2 - 8x + 3

<u>Simplify the expression</u>

The expression is given as:

(3s^2 - 2s + 1) \div (s^2 - s + 2)

Evaluate the quotient

3 + (s - 5)/(s^2 - 5 + 2)

Hence, the simplified expression is 3 + (s - 5)/(s^2 - 5 + 2)

Mr. Harrow has eight boys and six girls in his Honors Pre-calculus class. If he randomly chooses two students, one at a time, wh
Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer: 15/91 which is choice B

=================================================================

There are two methods to find this answer.

Method 1) We have 6 girls and 8+6 = 14 students. The probability of picking a girl is 6/14 = 3/7. After the first girl is chosen, we have 5 girls left out of 14-1 = 13 students overall. The probability of picking another girl (assuming the first selection was a girl) is 5/13. Multiply these probabilities: (3/7)*(5/13) = (3*5)/(7*13) = 15/91

--------------------

Method 2) We can use the nCr combination formula. Order does not matter.

We have nCr = 6 C 2 = 15 ways to pick 2 girls. See the attached image below for the steps (figure 1)

Out of nCr = 14 C 2 = 91 ways to pick 2 students. See the attached image below for the steps (figure 2)

So that's another way to get the answer 15/91.
