At the end of the year ...
the price will be 44,000*1.0324 = 45,425.60
the bank balance will be 44,000*1.02 = 44,880.00
This is 545.60 fewer dollars than required to pay the price.
You lose $545.60 in current-year buying power.
The answe is 103.375, because when you divide 827 by 8, you get the answer of 103.375. To be sure, you may also type it in a calculator, and you'll noticed you'll get the same answer.
Answer: C. Subtraction Property of Inequality
Expand it
-(x+3)^2-1
-(x+3)(x+3)-1
-1(x^2+3x+3x+9)-1
-1(x^2+6x+9)-1
-x^2-9x-9-1
-x^2-9x-10
f(x)=-x^2-9x-10

subtract the numbers:


subtract 9 from both sides

simplify

divide both sides by 6


decimal

Hope this helps :)
