Lets factor first to see if we can make the problem simple
2(4x^2-25)
now we see that in parenthesis we have 2 square numbers
4x^2=(2x)^2
25=(5)^2
our expression is now
2(2x+5)(2x-5)
Answer:
$40
Step-by-step explanation:
use y = mx + b
y = amount saved = ?
m = amount saved per week = $10
x = time (in months) saving = 2.5
b = money jerry started with = $15
plug in:
y = (10)(2.5)+15
y = $40
Translating this word problem into an algebraic equation, we get:
3x - 2/5 = 8/5.
Let's combine the constants: adding 2/5 to both sides of this equation yields
3x = 10/5, or 3x = 2.
Solving for x: x = 2/3
Well 600-280=320 but if you're going for the neerest hundred that will be 300
34% . <span>Since going from 75% to 82% is simply the right portion of that middle, the answer is half of 68%, or 34%.</span>
