Answer:
29
Step-by-step explanation:
Well "value" of 3x^2 - 7x + 9 when x = 4 is just x plugged into the expression

3 * 16 - 28 + 9
= 29
Remember when you learning about the "Least Common
Multiple" and you wondered when in the world you would
ever need to use it ?
Well, here you are ! Hello !
The next time they will cross the starting line together is the
LCM (Least Common Multiple) of 30 and 40 .
Do you remember how to find it ?
Here's one easy way:
Count by 30s until you come to a number that's divisible by 40 .
Laura's first lap. . . . . . . . 30 seconds . . . not divisible by 40
Laura's two laps . . . . . . . 60 seconds . . . not divisible by 40
Laura's three laps. . . . . . 90 seconds . . . not divisible by 40
Laura's four laps. . . . . . 120 seconds . . . divisible by 40
After 120 seconds, Laura has completed four laps,
Shelby has completed only three laps.
Since the rate of the other store is not given, let us just get the sales price of the skirt Dima bought from the discount store.
Original price : $54
Discount rate : 30%
$54 x 30% = $16.20 value of the discount
$54 - 16.20 = $37.80 discounted price.
Since Dima's friend told her she could have had a better deal at a different store, this means that the discount rate is higher than 30%. Let us assume that the discount is 35%
$54 x 35% = $18.90 value of the discount
$54 - 18.90 = $35.10 discounted price.
Discount store: $37.80
Different store: $35.10
Different store sales price is cheaper by $2.70
