Answer:

Multiply 1/4 ; dividing 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that in each number going from left to right, it decreases by dividing 4 each time (or multiplying 1/4)

8/4 = 2 ; 2/4 = 1/2 ; (1/2)/(4) = 1/8 ; etc.

(8)(1/4) = 2 ; (2)(1/4) = 1/2 ; etc.

kolezko [41]

Answer: $49.75

Step-by-step explanation:

$53.50 is with the added 7%.

we want to find what the price is without the 7%

take that $53.50 is 100%

1% - 53.50/100 = 0.535

7% - 0.535 x 7 = 3.745

$53.50 - 3.75 = $49.75

Answer:

LHS ≠ RHS

Step-by-step explanation:

$LHS =\\\\=(x+1)^2 (x + 2) \\\\=(x^2 + 2x + 1)(x+2)\\\\=x(x^2 + 2x + 1) + 2(x^2 + 2x + 1) \\\\=(x^3 + 2x^2 + x ) + ( 2x^2 + 4x + 2) \\\\=x^3 + 2x^2 + x + 2x^2 + 4x + 2 \\\\=x^3 + 4x^2 + 5x + 2$
