Why would the first step be to add 5 to both sides

By equating the polynomial equation to zero and factoring the polynomial, we can find its roots. (For a product to be equal to zero, at least one of its factors must be equal to zero.)

When the product of factors equals zero, one or more of the factors must also equal zero. Once the polynomial is factored, set each factor equal to zero and solve them separately

answer: 1,380

step-by-step explanation:

1: you turn %15 into a decimal by moving the decimal point two places to the left.

2: and then you multiply .15 by 1,200 , which will get you 180.00

3: from there you will add 180 to 1,200

4: which will get you 1,380

hope it *im kind of slow so idk if my answer is right*
