Answer:
x=7 because 25-4=21 and 21 ÷3=7
The food service gave out 80 samples, which is 4 fewer than 70% of the total number of samples they prepared. Lets make x the total number of samples they prepared.
So lets write it as an equation
80 = (70% of x) -4
70% converts to a decimal by moving the decimal point 2 spaces up, so it is 0.7
80 = 0.7x-4
Add 4 to both sides of the equation
84 = 0.7x
Divide both sides by 0.7 to isolate the x
x = 120
The food service prepared 120 samples.

6. Kari is not correct.
Step-by-step explanation:
5. All like terms can be combined. There will be one term remaining after they are.
___
6. The appropriate factoring is x(x+1). This is not the same as x(2x+1).
In order to show equivalence, you need to show that the expressions produce the same result for as many different values of x as the degree of the expression plus 1. That is, you'd need to show equivalence for <em>3 different values of x</em>, as a minimum for this second-degree expression.
