<h2>Steps</h2>
So here are a couple expressions when a value changes by percentage (p = percentage in decimal form and m = original value):
- When <em>decrease</em>: (1 - p)m
- When <em>increase</em>: (1 + p)m
So firstly, the $80 share dropped by 15%. Since this is a <em>decrease</em>, follow the appropriate expression:
<em>On Tuesday, the share went from $80 to $68</em>
Next, on Wednesday the share increased by $7. With this, just add $68 and 7.
<em>On Wednesday, the share went from $68 to $75</em>
Lastly, on Thursday the share increased by 12%. Since this is an <em>increase</em>, follow the appropriate expression:
<h2>Answer</h2>
<u>The final price of the share is $84.</u>
Answer:
10×4 = 40
10^4 = 10,000
Step-by-step explanation:
10^4 is another way to write 10⁴ = 10·10·10·10 = 10,000.
Essentially, the exponent tells you how many places to the right of the leading digit the decimal point lies (here, the number of zeros in the number).

<em>Comment on the answer choice</em>
The appropriate answer depends on what you mean by your problem statement. Some microscopes magnify 40 times; others magnify 10,000 times, so we cannot tell the appropriate answer using our knowledge of microscopes.
Answer:
x^3-8
Step-by-step explanation:
x^3+2x^2+4x + -2x^2-4x-8
+2x^2 and -2x^2 cancel out
+4x and -4x cancel out
Answer:
0 boxes minimum
Step-by-step explanation:
The mass of the truck and paper must satisfy ...
22.5b + 2948.35 ≤ 4700 . . . . total truck mass cannot exceed bridge limits
22.5b ≤ 1751.65
b ≤ 77.85
The driver can take a minimum of 0 boxes and a maximum of 77 boxes of paper over the bridge.
_____
The question asks for the <em>minimum</em>. We usually expect such a question to ask for the <em>maximum</em>.
B. is the answer because they have 2 variables that you need to combine “combine like terms”
