Answer: History textbooks sold = 236, Sociology textbooks sold = 118

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given</u>

- There are in total 354 books

- Let x be the number of sociology textbooks sold

- Let 2x be the number of history textbooks sold

<u>Solve</u>

Given

x + 2x = 354

Combine like terms

3x = 354

Divide 3 on both sides

3x / 3 = 354 / 3

x = 118

2x = 118 × 2 = 236

Hope this helps!! :)

Please let me know if you have any questions

The independent variable is the day of the year. The function is the cumulative number of accidents since the first of the year
NARA [144]

Answer:

The units of the average growth rate is number of accidents per day.                  

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

The independent variable is the day of the year.

The function is the cumulative number of accidents since the first of the year at a certain dangerous intersection.

Average growth represents the rate at which the dependent variable changes as the independent variable changes.

Independent variable: day of the year

Dependent variable: cumulative number of accidents

Thus, the growth rate will have units

\dfrac{\text{Accidents}}{\text{Day}}

Thus, the units of the average growth rate is number of accidents per day.
