Answer:

9

Step-by-step explanation:

A = B + 2

C = B - 3

A x C = 66

A = Andrew

C = Chris

B = Beatrice

Multiply A and c together

(B + 2) x (b - 3)

b^2 - 3b + 2b - 6

b^2 -b - 6 = 66

b^2 - b - 72 = 0

factors of -72b^2 that add up to - b are -9b + 8b

b^2 + 8b -9b - 72

b (b + 8) -9(b + 8)

b = 9 or - 8

b = 9

First, we need to know how much profit in dollar value by this method
profit = percentage × whole price

Plug in the numbers to the formula above
profit = percentage × whole price
profit = 40% × 25
profit = 0.40 × 25
profit = 10
The profit Daniel gets is $10

Second, add the original price and the profit together and you'll find the new price.
new price = original price + profit
new price = $25 + $10
new price = $35

Daniel sold the computer game for $35

Step-by-step explanation:

Dependent Variable is the variable being affected by independent variable(s). Independent Variable(s) are the causal variable, bring change in dependent variable.

Goodrich wants to demonstrate that his tires were better than those of his competitor (Goodyear). For that, he has got conducted an independent research on tires worn quality - brand wise & various factors affecting wear

  • Dependent Variable is the 'Tire tread wear '.
  • Independent Variables determining it is primarily brand : Goodrich / Goodyear ; secondarily - price, mileage, time etc

Confounding variable is an extraneous influence variable; that changes the relationship between independent & dependent variable, outcome of experimental research.

In this case : Individuals driving the vehicles could be a confounding variable. A  particular person could wear out tire more than another person.
