<em><u>Answer:</u></em>

x = 2

<em><u>Step-by-step explanation:</u></em>

In the equation 7.2x = 14.4, to find x, we first want to isolate the variable.

It would be a little easier if there were no decimals so:

7.2x = 14.4

We could multiply both sides by 10 to get rid of the decimals

7.2x * 10 = 14.4 * 10

72x = 144

We then can divide both sides by 72

72x/72 = 144/72

<u><em>x = 2</em></u>

Which answer choice correctly simplifies the expression Hint: Use distributive property and watch your signs. -4 (x2 - 2xy + 5y2
Sever21 [200]

Answer: -4x^2 + 8xy - 20y^2 + 12

Step-by-step explanation:

-4 (x2 - 2xy + 5y2 - 3)

-4(x^2) = -4x^2

-4(-2xy) = 8xy

-4(5y^2) = -20y^2

-4(-3) = 12

Solve each system.<br> y=7-3x<br> 3x+y=10
ad-work [718]

Answer: 0 = 3

Step-by-step explanation: If y = 7 - 3x, we can plug that in for y in the equation 3x + y = 10 by writing it as 3x + 7 - 3x = 10.

                                                                    - 7            - 7

                                                               --------------------------

                                                               3x - 3x        = 3

                                                                       0          = 3

Three groups of schoolchildren receive three different types of reading instruction for a school year. At the end of the year, s
ollegr [7]

Answer:

types of reading instruction - independent variable

reading comprehension of students - dependent variable

Explanation:

When it comes to the "experimentation" of  a study, there are factors or variables that are being considered. These are <em>"independent variable</em>" and <em>"dependent variable."</em>

Independent variable refers to the variable that is being controlled. This affects the dependent variable. The influence of the independent variable on the dependent variable is <u>very important.</u>

So, in the situation above, the independent variable is the "types of reading instruction for a school year" while the dependent variable is the "reading comprehension" of the students.

<em>This means that the reading comprehension of the students will largely depend on the types of reading material.</em>

Thus, this explains the answer.

A market analyst has projected that the cost of producing d dog leashes will be given by the polynomial 9000 + 3.2d. The revenue
Sholpan [36]

Answer:

C. -0.00005d^2+11.8d-9000

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Cost Price for producing 'd' dog lashes = 9000+3.2d

Revenue Generated from selling 'd' dog lashes = d(15-0.00005d)

We need to find the profit earned from producing and selling 'd' dog lashes.

Solution:

Now we know that;

profit earned from producing and selling 'd' dog lashes can be calculated by Subtracting Cost Price for producing 'd' dog lashes from Revenue Generated from selling 'd' dog lashes.

framing in equation form we get;

Profit earned = d(15-0.00005d)-(9000+3.2d)

Now Applying Distributive property we get;

Profit earned = 15d-0.00005d^2-9000-3.2d

Now Combining like terms we get;

Profit earned = -0.00005d^2+15d-3.2d-9000

Profit earned = -0.00005d^2+11.8d-9000

Hence  Profit earned from producing and selling 'd' dog lashes is -0.00005d^2+11.8d-9000.
