"of" means multiply, "was/is" means equals
started driving price was 1/4 of current price
? = 1/4 x 3.16
? = 3.16/4
? = .89
Answer: $0.89
Your statemtent is incomplete.
I found the samestatment with the complete words: <span>Simplify
completely quantity x squared minus 3 x minus 54 over quantity x
squared minus 18 x plus 81 times quantity x squared plus 12 x plus </span>36 over x plus 6
Given that your goal is to learn an be able to solve any similar problem, I can teach you assuming that what I found is exactly what you need.
x^2 - 3x - 54 x^2 + 12x + 36
------------------ x ---------------------
x^2 - 18x + 81 x + 6
factor x^2 - 3x - 54 => (x - 9)(x + 6)
factor x^2 - 18x + 81 => (x - 9)^2
factor x^2 + 12x + 36 = (x + 6)^2
Now replace the polynomials with the factors=>
(x - 9) (x + 6) (x + 6)^2 (x + 6)^2 x^2 + 12x + 36
------------------------------ = --------------- = --------------------
(x - 9)^2 (x + 6) (x - 9) x - 9
For 1 year, the house appreciates $4375 (3.5% of 125,000). Therefore after 10 years, $4375(10) = $43750. $125,000+ $43750 = $168,750.
When I did this equation I didn’t get any of these following answer choices, I apologize… Maybe the question was worded incorrectly? Please do let me know more info in the comments underneath this answer for I truly wish to help you out here :)
(P.S my work is shown below)
The equation would be:
