Answer: 25

Step-by-step explanation: Well percent means over 100 so we can set up an equation for this problem by reading it from left to right.

What means x, is means equals, 25% is 25/100, of means times, and 100 means 100. So we have the equation x = 25/100 · 100.

Simplifying on the right side of the equation,

notice that 25/100 reduces to 1/4.

So we have x = 1/4 · 100.

Think of the 100 as 100/1.

So we can cross-cancel the 100 and 4 to 25 and 1

and we have x = 1 · 25 over 1 · 1 or x = 25.

Now let's check our answer back in the original problem to see if it makes sense.

We have 25 is 25% of 100.

Well we know that 100% of 100 would be 100 so 25% of 100 should be alot less than 100 so 25 seems to make sense.

Paul predicts that n stalks of corn planted together will produce (2n2–2n)(2n2–2n) ears of corn. If Paul plants three corn plant

Free_Kalibri [48]

Given that the production of n stalks of corn planted has been modeled by (2n^2-2n), then the approximate ears of corn produced by 3 stalks will be given by:
2n^2-2n
plugging in n=3 in the formula we get:
2(3)^2-2(3)
simplifying we get:
2(9)-6
=18-6
=12
the answer is: 12 ears
