The answer is 2.46
Hope it helps!
(a+b)^7= a^7+ 7a^7b+ 21 a^6b²+ 35a^5b³+ 35 a⁴b⁴+ 21 a³b^5 + 7a²b^6 + b^7
The doctor has to pay 9127.5 in income taxes
X + 5 + 11x = 12x + y
Simplify: 12x + 5 = 12x + y (We are adding x and 11x on the left side)
Subtract 12x from each side makes each zero.
5 = y
So we can plug in and test. I'm picking two random numbers to plug in for x. 10, and 82
x = 10, y = 5
10 + 5 + 11(10) = 12(10) + 5
125 = 125
x = 82, y = 5
82 + 5 + 11(82) = 12(82) + 5
989 = 989
So we verified y = 5
