Does the order of variables matter when combining like terms in algebra

Answer: No
The order of variables does not matter when combining like terms in algebra, because of the commutative property.

Explanation:
Consider the addition of two algebraic expressions.
f(x) = x³ - 5x² + 3x - 2
g(x) = 6x³ + 10x² - 7x + 9

Add f(x) and g(x).
f(x) + g(x) = x³ - 5x² + 3x - 2 + (6x³ + 10x² - 7x + 9)
                = x³ + 6x³ - 5x² + 10x² + 3x - 7x - 2 + 9
                = 7x³ + 5x² - 4x + 7

Now add g(x) and f(x) in order to change the order of variable addition.
g(x) + f(x) = 6x³ + 10x² - 7x + 9 + (x³ - 5x² + 3x - 2)
                = 6x³ + x³ + 10x² - 5x² - 7x + 3x + 9 - 2
                = 7x³ + 5x² - 4x + 7

The two additions yield the same result, although the order of variable was reversed during the addition.

In general, algebraic operations are commutative.

Choose and describe a business that would have a significant amount of deferred revenue and share a photo of that business (or c
kondor19780726 [428]

Answer and Explanation:

Deferred revenue refers to payment received before the service or goods are delivered. Consider a subscription service that provide annual subscription such as Netflix. You may take the subscription through annual or monthly payment system. In case of annual payment system you have paid for 12 months but are currently on month 1. As a result, the 11 other months’ payment is considered as deferred revenue for Netflix.

Businesses such as this (Netflix) who sell annual subscription will have significant deferred revenue. The current Netflix subscription charges are $10.99 per month (lowest tier). In case of annual subscriptions they will likely have 11 months of deferred revenue or 11*10.99 = $120.89 as deferred revenue. Their total revenue per customer (in the lowest tier) will be $131.88. This makes their deferred revenue as 91.67% of their revenue.

higher prices for consumers and producers lower prices for consumers and producers higher prices for consumers and lower prices for producers

lower prices for consumers and higher prices for producers 

A subsidy is when the government pays an individual or a firm directly or indirectly. It could be in the form of direct cash payment, tax breaks or grants. Subsidies are usually given to encourage the production of goods and services.

Subsidy on agricultural goods reduces the price paid for agricultural goods and increases supply of goods. It would increase the price earned by producers.

Fill in the blank!! Many products, such as golf clubs, are made with graphite-epoxy resins because it's strong and lightweight.
TEA [102]
I think the answer is E. both supply and demand would increase.
I think this because the decrease in making would lower the price of the golf clubs. Therefore making people more likely to buy (demand increasing). The supply would also increase also because with a higher demand, the people buying the golf clubs would cause their supply of golf clubs to increase.
