9514 1404 393

Answer:

  16.4%

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming the 5% was taken off of the already-discounted price, then the original price was multiplied by ...

  (1 -12%)(1 -5%) = 0.88×0.95 = 0.836 = 1 -16.4%

The total decrease was 16.4%.

Hey:) can you please help me posted picture of question
oee [108]
Answer:
x² + 10x + 25

Explanation:
Before we begin, remember the following:
(a + b)(a + b) = (a + b)² = a² + 2ab + b²

Now, for the given we have:
(x + 5)(x + 5)
We can note that the two brackets are identical.
Therefore, we can apply the above rule as follows:
(x + 5)(x + 5) = (x + 5)²
                     = (x)² + 2(x)(5) + (5)²
                     = x² + 10x + 25

Hope this helps :)

Create a unique parabola in the pattern f(x) = ax^2 + bx + c. Describe the direction of the parabola and determine the y-interce
kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the quadratic function f(x) = -x^2 - 6x. The parabola faces downward with y -intercept (-3,9) and zeros (-6,0) and (0,0). See the attached graph.

The axis of symmetry will serve as a ladder through the coaster at x = -3.

Plz help 20 points if you get it right and I will give you brainliest
krek1111 [17]

Answer:

The first one cannot be simplified

reason: usually when simplifying an expression you combine like terms but in the given expression there are no like terms

An example of like terms would be 6a and 9a

Essentially what i am saying is that the variables have to be the same in order for them to be combined

The second one is 36r

This is the answer because they tried to combine like terms that aren't similar

r and f are not the same variable therefore they cannot be combined

Hope this helps :)
