4a^2-2ab-5b^2 :) that is simplified
Answer:
both statements are fine
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the price of a product after decreasing it, they can be done in the two ways that the statement tells us,
First, calculate that% that was decreased and then subtract it from the original price or simply multiply that original price by the percentage in which the new price would remain.
For example:
let "x" be the original price
in the first case it would be:
0.2 * x and then subtract from x, i.e .:
x - 0.2 * x
in the second case it is:
1 - 0.2 = 0.8
that is, the new price would be 0.8 * x
Simply divide 23 and 2/5 bags of apples between 9 friends:
23 and 2/5 bags ÷ 9 friends= 117/5 bags ÷ 9 friends
= 13/5 bags
= 2 and 3/5 bags
Therefore, each friend receives 2 and 3/5 bags of apples.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
For this sort of problem, there can be an infinite number of answers.
It can be convenient to choose one of the simpler answers by looking at the operations that are performed on the variable. Here, you have ...
- 2 multiplies it
- 4 is added to the product
- the square root is taken
- 8 is divided by that root
You can work from the bottom up and define the outer function (f(x)) to be any of these operations. In our answer above, we have elected to include the "square root" and the "8 divided by that root" in our definition of f.
Then our function g takes care of the other operations.
