1. Answer x=-5
You would subtract 25 from each side of the equal sign, taking 25 away from 40 and 25 away from 25, isolating the x. So you would then have -3x=15. You would then divide each side by -3, and getting x=-5
Answer:
coefficent matrix
Step-by-step explanation:

"If the column of constant terms is not included, the matrix reduces to that of the coefficent matrix of the system"
-1 -3 -1
9 -9 -1
-1 -3 4
D not for sure sorry if it’s wrong
If you call x the total value of the sales, the sale over 12,000 will be: g(x) = 12,000 - x.
And the commission is 4.1% of that = 0.041 * (12,000 - x) = 0.041 * g(x)
So, if f(x) = 0.041x, to calculate the commission you first have to calculate g(x) = 12,000 - x, and the f(g(x))=0.041[12,000 - x].
Which leads you to the solution for the commission as [f o g] (x) = f (g(x)) = 0.041 (12,000 - x).
Answer: [ f o g] (x)
4(m-2)=24
4m-8=24 distributive property
add 8 to each side
4m=32
divide each side by 4
m=8
