    (98)^2 no calculator mental math

    Round 98 to the nearest 10. This is 100. Call this a. Calculate b which is a - our original number: b = 100 - 98 b = 2 We can use this formula: (a - b)^2 = a(a- 2b) + b^2 Given a = 100 and b = 2, we have: (100 - 2)^2 = 100(100 - 2(2)) + 2^2 98^2 = 100(96) + 4 98^2 = 9600 + 4 98^2 = 9,604

    Simplify log(4) + log(12)

    Answer Choices A) log(3) B) log(48) C) 16 D) log(8) E) log(16) We know that log(ab) = log(a) = log(b) Looking at our problem, we see that a = 4 and b = 12, so we have: log(4) + log(12) = log(4 * 12) log(4) + log(12) = log(48) Answer B

    Vice Versa Percentage Method

    x% of y is the same as y% of x Example 1: 18% of 10 is the same as 10% of 18 10% is easy because we move the decimal one place left to get 1.8 Example 2: 40% of 50 is the same as 50% of 40 50% is easy because we cut a number in half 40/2 = 20
