Answer:

711.11

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>Method 1 </h3>

If 777  is decreased by 12%. the number would now be (100% - 12%) 88% of what it was originally

0.88 x 777 = 683.76

683.76 is increased by 4%.  683.76 would now be (100 + 4%) 104% of what it originally was

683.76 x 1.04 = 711.11

<h3>Method 2 </h3>

12% x 777 =

0.12 x 777 = 93.24

777 - 93.24 = 683.76

4% x 683.76 = 27.3504

683.76 + 27.3504 = 711.11

Help please.................
olganol [36]

Answer:

(-4, 0) and (5/2, 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

if you graph the equation you can see where the curve intersects the x-axis or you can factor the equation into:  (2x - 5)(x + 4) = 0

set each factor equal to zero and solve:

2x - 5 = 0

2x = 5

x = 5/2

x + 4 = 0

x = -4
