Answer:
Option c ==> 5/12 is the answer
Answer:
62.5
Step-by-step explanation:
1. convert percent value to decimal
30.00/100=.3
2. turn problem into equation where x equals the original price
x*.3=18.75
3. solve
(x*.3=18.750)/.3
x=62.5
You are allowed to move the decimal points before dividing with decimals because then, you will be able to divide by a whole number outside the dividend. Move the decimal point so that you are dividing by a whole number.
Y=3(x+1)(x-5)
I'm going to ignore 3 for now, but will add it later.
FOIL the (x+1)(x-5)
F = multiply the First numbers x and x
O = multiply the Outside numbers x and -5
I = multiply the Inside number 1 and x
L = multiply the Last numbers 1 and -5
3(x^2 + -5x + 1x + -5)
add -5x and x
3(x^2 + -4x + -5)
multiply the numbers inside the parenthesis by 3
3x^2 + -12x + -15
