I believe the answer is 2
Using proportions, it is found that $147.8 billion was spent on television advertising in the previous year.
- $x, in billions, was spent on advertising expenditures on television last year.
- This year, the amount declined 4.1%, hence it is 100% - 4.1% = 95.9% of last year's amount, that is, 0.959x.
This year spending's is of 141.7 billion, hence, the equation is:

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
1) Use the FOIL method: (a+b)(c+d)=ac+ad+bc+bd.

2) Collect like terms.

3) Simplify.

Therefor, the answer is, 10x^3 - 26x^2 - 12x.
An ordered pair (x,y) is a solution to a system of equations if it makes all the equations true.
Let's check whether (–1, 5) makes the equations true.
Plugging –1 in the first equation for x and 5 in for y, we get
–1 + 5 = 4: TRUE
Plugging –1 in the second equation for x and 5 in for y, we get
–1 – 5 = –6: TRUE
Since it makes both the equations true, it's a solution to the system of equations. So the answer choice is D, the 4th one.
30% off $ 45
<span>30% of $ 45 = (.3) (45) = $ 13.50 </span>
<span>30% off $ 45 = $ 45.00 - $ 13.50 = $ 31.50
hope this helped:)
