50 PTS. Andrew loves candy so much that after returning from Costco with some candy, he eats 40% of the candy he just bought. The next day he eats 40% of the remaining candy and continues to eat another 40% each day. What percent to the candy will Andrew have left after six days round your answer to the nearest whole percent. PROVIDE EXPLANATION PLEASE!!

5%

Step-by-step explanation:

100% - 40%

= 60% or 3/5 - first day

2/5 of 3/5 = 6/25 = 24% eaten

36% left - 2nd day

2/5 of 6/25 = 14.4% eaten

= 21.6 % left - 3rd day

2/5 of 21.6 = 8.64% eaten

= 12.96 % left - 4th day

2/5 of 12.96%  = 5.184 eaten

= 7.776% left - 5th day

2/5 of 7.776% = 3.1104% eaten

= 4.6656% left after the 6th day

rounded off to 5% after the 6th day

answer: there are 453.592 grams in a pound.

(x3 + 6x2 + 2x - 6) • (x - 1)

step-by-step explanation:

polynomial long division :

3.2     polynomial long division

dividing :   x4+5x3-4x2-8x+6

                              ("dividend")

by         :     x-1     ("divisor")

dividend     x4   +   5x3   -   4x2   -   8x   +   6

- divisor   * x3     x4   -   x3            

remainder         6x3   -   4x2   -   8x   +   6

- divisor   * 6x2         6x3   -   6x2        

remainder             2x2   -   8x   +   6

- divisor   * 2x1             2x2   -   2x    

remainder               -   6x   +   6

- divisor   * -6x0               -   6x   +   6

remainder                     0

quotient :   x3+6x2+2x-6   remainder:   0
