The correct answer is maybe 3
You simply put 40 over a hundred and 55 over n (which is the number were trying to find) so you do cross multiplication. 55 times a hundred and after you get the answer. You divide it by 40 and should get 137.5.

Answer:
D. difference of squares
Step-by-step explanation:
Both of the terms x^2 and 9 are squares, so their difference is the difference of squares. The factorization of that is a "special form" that can be usefully memorized.
a^2 -b^2 = (a -b)(a +b)
x^2 -9 = (x -3)(x +3)
Well let's see what floor each one lands on and figure out which one is higher.
Something to note:
down = subtracting
up = adding
if something says it's doing something more than once, add it the number of times it's doing that thing. (You can also multiply it by that number but the adding way is a bit easier to understand and explain)
<u>Elevator 1:</u>
6 + 7 + 7 - 10 = 10
<u>Elevator 2:</u>
20 - 5 - 5 - 5 + 12 = 17
Elevator 2 ends on a higher floor (reasoning above)
