Let's simplify step-by-step.
−3x2−5x2(4x3−x2)(2)
Distribute:
=−3x2+−40x5+10x4
Answer:
=−40x5+10x4−3x2
I'm assuming the 59% achievement means, markup, so hmmmm well, if the bananas cost him $0.24 or 24cents per pound, so a markup of 59% is just 59% of 0.24 then.
whatever% of anything is just (whatever/100) * anything.
therefore, 59% of 0.24 is just (59/100) * 0.24, or 0.1416.
so, if we add 0.1416 to the 0.24, the selling price will be 0.3816, or just 38cents per pound of bananas.
25 * 16 = 400 tickets were sold
400 * $15 = $6000 was raised
4/5=0.8
1/50=0.02
Hope that helps
