Answer:
x^2 -2x+1
Step-by-step explanation:
(x - 1 )(x - 1)
FOIL
first: x*x = x^2
Outer: -1x
inner: -1x
Last: -1*-1 = 1
Add these together
x^2 -1x-1x+1
x^2 -2x+1
Basically, the higher the price an item is the more you will be taking off of it if it is 10 percent off. For example, at $50, 10 percent off is $5, but at $55, it’s $5.50. There is more to take away, making the final price less than the original. Hope that make sense!
Since there are equal numbers of pieces, the chances of Julio getting a red on the first pull is 12/24 or 1/2 (reduced)
However on the second pull there are only 11 reds (Julio pulled one out) out of 23 remaining pieces so the chances of pulling the second red are 11/23
Now multiply those possibilities:
1/2 x 11/23 and you will get 11/46 which is the probability of pulling two reds in a row. 11/46 is the answer.
Answer:
$3,000 was invested in the account that gained 13%
$17,500 was invested in the account that lost 10%
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the amount in both accounts be x and y
x for the first and y for the second
Adding both is 20,500
x + y = 20,500 •••••(i)
First account earned 13% profit
= 13/100 * x = 0.13x
Second account, a loss of 10%
= -10/100 * y = -0.1y
Total loss of -1,360
This is;
-0.1y + 0.13x = -1,360 •••••••(ii)
From i, x = 20,500-y
Insert this into ii
-0.1y + 0.13(20,500-y) = -1,360
-0.1y + 2665 -0.13y = -1360
-0.23y = -1360-2665
-0.23y = -4025
y = -4025/-0.23
y = 17,500
To get x, we have
x = 20,500 -y
x = 20,500- 17,500
x = 3,000
The answer is all real numbers because -2x-6=-2x-6
