Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

Each package has 12 pencils

total number of pencils Sarah purchased: n = 12p

n = total number of pencils

p = number of packages

n depends on p, because the total number of pencils dependos on how many packages she will buy, so:

independent variable: p

dependent variable: n

╔═══╦══════════╦════╗

║ p     ║ n = 12p            ║ n  ║

╠═══╬══════════╬════╣

║ 3     ║ n = 12*3           ║ 36     ║

╠═══╬══════════╬════╣

║ 4     ║ n = 12*4           ║ 48     ║

╠═══╬══════════╬════╣

║ 5     ║ n = 12*5           ║ 60     ║

╠═══╬══════════╬════╣

║ 6     ║ n = 12*6           ║ 72     ║

╠═══╬══════════╬════╣

║ 7     ║ n = 12*7           ║ 84     ║

Work Shown:

(12s^4-6s^2+4s)+(6s^4-4s+27)-(4s^4+s^2+12)

12s^4-6s^2+4s+6s^4-4s+27-4s^4-s^2-12

(12s^4+6s^4-4s^4)+(-6s^2-s^2)+(4s-4s)+(27-12)

14s^4-7s^2+0s+15

14s^4-7s^2+15
