To decrease this amount by 15% we must first find out what is 15% percent.
We can do that by multiplying the decimal of 15% by 120
15% = 0.15
0.15 x 120 = 18
So 18 is 15% of 120.
Wait! that's not the answer. We are asked to decrease by 15%
So 120 - 18 = 102
Your answer is £102
At a restaurant Mike and his three friends that means that there was four people splitting the bill. If each of them paid $13 then the bill was $52
4 * 13 = $52

RemarkThis is very complicate unless you pick the right method. It's very handy o know about substitutions.
MethodLet z = (k + 2)^2
Now the problem becomes
z + 16/z = 92 Multiply through by z
Solutionz^2 + 16 = 92z
That does not look very promising. If you know the quadratic formula, this mess can be solved. If you do not know what the quadratic formula is, then what I've written is the answer.
Worse yet, you have to know what complex numbers are. Is this something you know about? The z form of this equation is fine. It gives answers that are rational. The problem is that both are negative and so in your next step, you will be forced to take the square root of a negative number.
Maybe the answer is just
(x + 3)^ + 16 = 92(x + 3)^2
If all you have to do is expand this then you get
x^2 + 6x + 9 + 16 = 92(x^2 + 6x + 9) Remove the brackets.
x^2 + 6x + 25 = 92x^2 + 552x + 828 Put the left over to the right.
0 = 92x^2 - x^2 + 552x - 6x + 828 - 25
0 = 91x^1 + 546x + 803
It looks that way from the second question. If I'm wrong about that, put a comment down below.

Answer:
There will be 20 grams of fat in 10 pounds of chicken.
Step-by-step explanation:
Based of the pattern you can tell that the Grams of fat will always be double the amount of pounds.
2 grams of fat in 1 pound
9 grams in 4.5 pounds
So:
10 * 2 = Grams of fat
10 * 2 = 20 Grams of fat.
So there will be 20 grams of fat in 10 pounds of chicken.
