I hope I am reading the problem right: The price of a mountain bike increased by 20% in the past year. The value is $150. What was the value of the mountain bike last year?
Let's simplify this. One year, there was this radical mountain bike that used to have an unsaid price, <em>x. </em>That year, that price of x increased by 20% more than it was before, or <em>120% times the original value</em>. Because of that, it's now $150.
We can equation this.
1.20x = 150
x = 150/1.2
x = 125
The bike, I believe, cost $125 last year. Hope this helps!
I would say the cube because it takes more space (volume) than the row of cubes

Answer:
A. b+2(b+2b)
b + 2b + 4b = 7b
B. 3b + b = 4b
C. 2(2b) = 4b
None of them are equal to 9b
Answer:
13 lbs
Step-by-step explanation:
to find 1/10 we divide by 10
This can be found by moving the decimal back by one
So 130/10=13
13 lbs were lost
