2(x+7)
=2x+14
because 2*x=2x and 2*7=14.
If you would like to simplify the difference <span>(–7x – 5x^4 + 5) – (–7x^4 – 5 – 9x), you can do this using the following steps:
</span><span>(–7x – 5x^4 + 5) – (–7x^4 – 5 – 9x) = -7x - 5x^4 + 5 + 7x^4 + 5 + 9x = 2x^4 + 2x + 10
The correct result would be </span><span>a. 2x^4 + 2x + 10.</span>
Substitute 1 for x in each of your equations.
f(x)=7-3x
which is
f(1)=7-3(1)
=3
Do the same for g(x)
g(x)=3x-7
which is
g(1)=3(1)-7
=-4
Then subtract g(x) from f(x):
3-(-4)
=7

So for this problem, let us use x as the cost before Chet would apply a $25 gift certificate. Based on the problem, we can see that the original cost of the product cannot be more than 75 which means that it can be equal to 75 or less than 75. We can actually express the inequality as x< or = 75 since we are looking for the cost before Chet applied the $25 gift certificate. This means that we do not need to add in the 25 yet since the question asks for the cost before the application of the discount.
The answers would be: B, D, and E
