Answer:

The company decided to increase the price by $9.60, or by 48%.

Step-by-step explanation:

To measure the price difference in dollars is simple, just subtract the old price from the new one:

29.60 - 20 = 9.60

Divide the price change by the old price to find the price increase in percentage:

9.60 \div 20 = 0.48 \\ 0.48 \times 100\% = 48\%

Peter wants to fence the park in front of his home on three sides which measure 152m 40cm, 205m 10cm, 310m 39cm. What is the tot
Tpy6a [65]

One centimenter is 0.01 meters. So, you can write the measures as

152.40\text{m},\quad 205.10\text{m},\quad 310.39\text{m}

Once this rewriting is done, getting the total length T is quite trivial, since all measurements are in the same unit, and we can simply sum everything:

T = 152.40+205.10+310.39 = 667.89

Factor the polynomial expression 15x^2 - 2x - 8
AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

(3 x + 2) (5 x - 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Factor the following:

15 x^2 - 2 x - 8

Factor the quadratic 15 x^2 - 2 x - 8. The coefficient of x^2 is 15 and the constant term is -8. The product of 15 and -8 is -120. The factors of -120 which sum to -2 are 10 and -12. So 15 x^2 - 2 x - 8 = 15 x^2 - 12 x + 10 x - 8 = 5 x (3 x + 2) - 4 (3 x + 2):

5 x (3 x + 2) - 4 (3 x + 2)

Factor 3 x + 2 from 5 x (3 x + 2) - 4 (3 x + 2):

Answer: (3 x + 2) (5 x - 4)
