Discount percent = 33%

Sale price = $268

Let the original price be $x.

So,

x - (33\% \: of \: x) = 268 \\  =  > x - ( \frac{33}{100}  \times x) = 268 \\  =  > x - ( \frac{33x}{100}) = 268 \\  =  >  \frac{100x}{100}  -  \frac{33x}{100}  = 268 \\  =  >  \frac{(100x - 33x)}{100}  = 268 \\  =  >  \frac{67x}{100}  = 268 \\  =  > 67x = 268 \times 100 \\  =  > 67x = 26800 \\  =  > x =  \frac{26800}{67}  \\  =  > x = 400

So, yesterday the price was $400.

Factor completely x^4-17x^2+16​
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

(x - 1) (x + 1) (x - 4) (x + 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

actor the following:

x^4 - 17 x^2 + 16

x^4 - 17 x^2 + 16 = (x^2)^2 - 17 x^2 + 16:

(x^2)^2 - 17 x^2 + 16

The factors of 16 that sum to -17 are -1 and -16. So, (x^2)^2 - 17 x^2 + 16 = (x^2 - 1) (x^2 - 16):

(x^2 - 1) (x^2 - 16)

x^2 - 16 = x^2 - 4^2:

(x^2 - 1) (x^2 - 4^2)

Factor the difference of two squares. x^2 - 4^2 = (x - 4) (x + 4):

(x - 4) (x + 4) (x^2 - 1)

x^2 - 1 = x^2 - 1^2:

(x^2 - 1^2) (x - 4) (x + 4)

Factor the difference of two squares. x^2 - 1^2 = (x - 1) (x + 1):

Answer: (x - 1) (x + 1) (x - 4) (x + 4)

A youth soccer field is a rectangle 110 yards long and 60 yards wide. A professional soccer field is a rectangular 110 yards lon
Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

2200 Square Yards

Step-by-step explanation:

Dimension of the Youth Soccer Field = 110 yards long and 60 yards wide.

  • Therefore Area of the Youth Soccer Field = 110 X 60 =6600 Square Yards

Dimension of the professional soccer field =110 yards long and 80 yards wide.

  • Area of the professional soccer field = 110 X 80 =8800 Square Yards

The difference in their Area = 8800-6600=2200 Square Yards

Therefore, the professional soccer field has an area of 2200 Square Yards more than the youth soccer field.
