If the next number is 125% of the previous number, that means that the previous number is increasing by 25% each time.

The multiplier for increasing by 25% is:

(100 + 25) ÷ 100 = 1.25

So on day one, there are 64 responses. That means on day two, there will be:

---> 64 x 1.25 = 80 responses

On day 3, there will be:

---> 80 x 1.25 = 100 responses

Finally, on <u>day 4</u>, there will be:

---> 100 x 1.25 = 125 responses

A quicker way of getting this would be to do:

64 x 1.25³      since you are multiplying by 1.25  3 times

Answer:

125 responses

Use the zero product property to find the solutions to the equation (x+2)(x+3)=12
Rainbow [258]

Answer:

<em>x=-6, x=1</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>The zero product property</u>

It states that if a.b=0, then it must be satisfied that a=0 or b=0. It's commonly used to solve equations where one of the sides is 0.

The given equation is:

(x+2)(x+3)=12

Since neither side is 0, we operate the expression:

x^2+3x+2x+6=12

Moving 12 to the left side and simplifying:

x^2+3x+2x+6-12=0

x^2+5x-6=0

Factoring:

(x+6)(x-1)=0

Now, since there is zero on the right side, we apply the property to solve:

x+6=0, or x-1=0

The two solutions come directly:

x=-6, x=1
