Take his now weight which is 180.4. Divide it by 0.82 because 18% off is 82%. So 180.4/0.82= 220 pounds
Wow good job lol- umm get into it I guess
Rules of exponents and the distributive property apply.
(x+y)² = (x+y)·(x+y) . . . . . meaning of exponent of 2
= x·(x+y) +y·(x+y) . . . . . . . distributive property
= x·x +x·y +y·x +y·y . . . . . distributive property
= x² +x·y +x·y +y² . . . . . . meaning of exponent of 2, commutative property of multiplication
= x² +(1+1)·x·y +y² . . . . . . distributive property
= x²+2xy+y² . . . . . . . . . the desired form
Thus
(x+y)² = x²+2xy+y²
