1 of 10 is equivalent to 10% because 1/10 is .10 and .10•100% is 10% so the newspapers advertising is higher
Factoring – Using the Distributive Property. A factor is a number that can be divided into another number evenly. For example, the factors of 6 are 1, 2, 3, and 6. ... It means that a number outside the parentheses of an addition problem can be multiplied by each number inside the parentheses.
We have
x² + 24x = 17 (1)
Note that
(x + 12)² = x² + 24x + 144
By adding 144 to the left side of equation (1), it becomes a perfect square.
Therefore
x² + 24x = (x+12)² - 144 (2)
Substitute (2) into (1).
(x + 12)² - 144 = 17
(x + 12)² = 17 +144
(x + 12)² = 161
Answer:
We added 144 to the left side of equation (1) in order to make it a perfect square.
Sn = n(n+1) = 100(101) = 10100
So take 112 and multiply it by 7, 7x112 = 784.
