Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let your number be X. To increase X by 40% we can multiply it by 1.4, let's call this new number Y.
So Y = X * 1.4
Now to decrease Y by 40% we can multiply it by 1 - .4 = .6. Lets call this new number C.
So C = Y *.6 = (X * 1.4) * .6 = X * (1.4 * .6) = X * .84.
Therefore, C = .84 * X.
So we can see C is 84% of X, or 16% less than X.
Thus, if you increase a number by 40% then decrease it by 40%, the net percentage is -16% .
I think its C sorry if its wrong
Get the two numbers into the same denominator to compare them.
The LCD of 10 and 12 is 60, but you could use 120 or 240 or whatever else.
9/10 would scale up to 54/60 (10 times 6 = 60, 9 times 6 = 54)
3/12 would scale up to 15/60 (12 times 5 = 60, 3 times 5 = 15)
Comparing 15/60 to 54/60, you could cut 3 pieces and would have 9/60 of an inch (3/20) remaining.
The difference between (3x+6y)(3x+6y) and (4x+9y)(4x+9y) is 7x² +36xy+45y²
<h3>What is an Expression ?</h3>
An expression is a mathematical statement which has variables , constants and mathematical operators simultaneously.
The expression given in the question is
(3x+6y)(3x+6y) and (4x+9y)(4x+9y)
the difference when (3x+6y)(3x+6y) is subtracted from (4x+9y)(4x+9y)
(4x+9y)(4x+9y) - (3x+6y)(3x+6y)
16 x² + 36xy+36xy +81y²-9x²-18x -18x -36y²
7x² +36xy+45y²
Therefore in simplest term , The difference between (3x+6y)(3x+6y) and (4x+9y)(4x+9y) is 7x² +36xy+45y²
