The two expressions are equivalent because the associative property of multiplication is applied, which means that no matter where you put the parenthesis, the two expressions will still be equal.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
First, note this parameters from the question.
We let x = number of $5 increases and number of 10 decreases in plates sold.
Our Revenue equation is:
R(x) = (300-10x)(10+5x)
We expand the above equation into a quadratic equation by multiplying each bracket:
R(x) = 3000 + 1500x - 3000x - 1500x^2
R(x) = -1500x^2 - 1500x + 3000 (collect like terms)
Next we simplify, by dividing through by -1500
= 1500x^2/1500 - 1500x/1500 + 3000/1500
= X^2 - x + 2
X^2 - x + 2 = 0
Next, we find the axis of symmetry using the formula x = -b/(2*a) where b = 1, a = 1
X = - (-1)/2*1
X = 1/2
Number of $5 increases = $5x1/2 = $2.5
=$2.5 + $20 = $22.5 ticket price gives max revenue.

Step-by-step explanation:
The directed lines have the form < x, y >
With the usual notation
right in x- direction → +
left in x- direction → -
up in y- direction → +
down in y- direction → -

EF = < 4, 1 >
22
FG = < 4, - 2 >
23
GH = < - 4, - 2 >
24
EH = < 4, - 3 >
Answer:
1. no solutions
2. one solution
Step-by-step explanation:
1. -4(5-3x)=12x+20
-20+12x=12x+20
-40+12x=12x
-40=0?????
So no solutions.
2. 3x+7(x+1)=2(6x+5)+2
3x+7x+7=12x+10+2
10x+7=12x+12
-2x+7=12
-2x=5
x=-5/2
So one solution.
