Answer:80

Assume the number to be 400 for instance,

10% of 400 increased = 400 + ( 10/100 × 400 )

= 400 + 40 = 440

The resulting number decreased by its 10% = 400 - (10/100 × 400)

= 400 - 40 = 360

Now, net decrease = 440 - 360 = 80

Answer:

400.

10% of 400 is 40 (Simply reduce the hundreds place to the tens place)

So now we have 440.

Decrease it by 10% again, and that brings you right back to 400.

We can use the right outside diagonal of the empty Lacsap's triangle as the coefficients of a polynomial: $$t^3 + 6t^2 + 12t + 8

Vanyuwa [196]

The given equation with t -1 is:
(t – 1)^3 + 6 (t – 1)^2 + 12 (t – 1) + 8

Expand each term before combining for easier visualization:
(t – 1)^3 = t^3 – 3 t^2 + 3t – 1
6 (t – 1)^2 = 6 t^2 – 12 t + 6
12 (t – 1) = 12 t - 12

Then substitute and combine:
-> t^3 – 3 t^2 + 3t – 1 + 6 t^2 – 12 t + 6 + 12 t – 12 + 8

t^3 + 3 t^2 + 3 t + 1 (ANSWER)
