Raymond's stamp collection ➞x
Alice′s stamp collection➞75%x
75%x-40%×75%x+140=x-20%x
75%x-30%x+140=80%x
45%x+140=80%x
140=80%x-45%x
x=400
Raymond′s stamp collection ➞400
Alice′s stamp collection➞300
Alice sold 300×40%=120
Answer:120

I asked before and didn’t get an answer I really don’t understand this thanks.
dmitriy555 [2]
The answer is D, because that is what you should get when you multiply it out.

4x^2 times x^2 = 4x^4 because...

1) multiply the 4 and the one in front of the x on the second term = 4 then

2) multiply x^2 times x^2 to get x^4, not x^3, so you can immediately eliminate A and B to save time.

Now let's deal with the second part..."may or may not be" part

A polynomial is an expression with more than two algebraic terms

terms are like...
2x + 3y ---there's two terms there, eventhough the 2 and x are multiplied, it doesn't count (same with the 3 and y)
since it only have two terms, not more than two terms, it is called a binomial, not polynomial. I think that's what they mean by that

one term with a variable (y,x,and so on) is called a monomial

one term with no var is called a constant

there's many more but hope this gave you some help

Wal-Mart is selling 12 highligters for $5.47. What is the unit price of the highlighters? (round the price to the nearest hundre
BaLLatris [955]

To be able to quickly solve this, we can temporarily make 5.47 into 547

Now, we can divide 547 by 12.

547 / 12 = 45.5

Now, we can round up from 45.5 to get 46.

However, we originally moved our decimal 2 places over, so now we must move it 2 places again.

46 ⇒ 0.46

The correct answer is $0.46
