Since you are not distributing at all, you can ignore the parenthesis :)
When ignoring the parenthesis your equation is
18x + 11 - 4x
Then just combine like terms :)
14x + 11
Your answer is C.
Hope this helped!
I need this answer too can you please help me out too if you find the answer
Explanation
Answer:
The answer is C did the assignment on edge.
Step-by-step explanation:
Using an exponential function, the inequality is given as follows:

The solution is t > 2.9, hence the tax status will change within the next 3 years.
<h3>What is an exponential function?</h3>
A decaying exponential function is modeled by:

In which:
- A(0) is the initial value.
- r is the decay rate, as a decimal.
For this problem, the parameters are given as follows:
A(0) = 9400, r = 0.143.
The population after t years is modeled by:



The tax status will change when:

Hence the inequality is:

Then:



Since both logs are negative:

t > 2.9.
The solution is t > 2.9, hence the tax status will change within the next 3 years.
