It would equal 0.75 and as a fraction it is 3/4
Combining the like terms, the simplified polynomials are given as follows:
a) 4x² - 14x + 17
b) -5x² - 20x + 8
<h3>How are polynomials simplified?</h3>
Polynomials are simplified combining the like terms, that is, adding these numbers with the same variable.
Item a:
4(x - 2)(x + 1) - 5(2x - 5)
Applying the distributive property:
4(x² - x - 2) - 10x + 25
4x² - 4x - 8 - 10x + 25
Combining the like terms:
4x² - 4x - 10x - 8 + 25
4x² - 14x + 17
Item b:
-5(x + 2)² + 28
-5(x² + 4x + 4) + 28
-5x² - 20x - 20 + 28
-5x² - 20x + 8

40 = x% of 32
32x = 40
x = 40/32
x = 1.25
multiply by 100 to convert to percentage...
x = 125%
40 is 125% of 32
For the first digit, we have 5 options that are 4,5,6,7,8 . For the second digit, we have 4 options which are 3,4,5 or 6 and for the third digit, we have the options of all numbers except 2 or 5 that is 1,3,4,6,7,8,9,0 . SO we have 8 options for third digit . So to find the total number of options, we need to multiply all the possible options for each digit that is 5 times 4 times 8 = 160 . So the number of possible options are 160 .
