Factor each trinomial. Then match the polynomial (term) on the left with its factored form (definition) on the right.

meriva

X² - 8x - 20 factors to give option
B) (x - 10)(x + 2)
x² + 8x - 20 factors to give option
A) (x - 2)(x + 10)
x² - x - 20 factors to give option C) (x - 5)(x + 4)
and x² - 9x - 20 is option D) Prime.

I hope this helps!

Given : Bob is looking to buy a new baseball cap with his favorite team’s logo on it. He finds one that normally sells for $32. If a 7% sales tax is added.

To find : What is the total cost?

Solution :

The sales price = $32

The tax rate = 7%=0.07

The sales tax is given by,

$\text{Sales tax}=\text{Rate}\times \text{Price}$

$\text{Sales tax}=0.07\times 32$

$\text{Sales tax}=2.24$

Now, adding to sales price

Total cost = 32+2.24

Total cost = $34.24

Therefore, the total cost is $34.24.
