Afirm determines its profit by subtracting from .

A firm determines its profit by subtracting "Total Cost" from "Total Revenue".

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given a statement "A firm determines its profit by subtracting from . Now we need to fill the blanks with suitable words.

We know that there are some initial costs associated with production of any product. So to get the profit, we need to subtract the cost that that is spent during production of the product from total sales.

Hence final answer can be written as:

A firm determines its profit by subtracting "Total Cost" from "Total Revenue".

he used the algebra tiles correctly.

step-by-step explanation:

given : 3x(2x-1)

solution :

since he used algebra tiles .

armando's solution is the same in the solution shown in figure

as he distributed 2x into x and x and wrote them vertically

and also write   -1 vertically

and 3x into x and x and x and wrote it horizontally

performing the multiplication in the algebra tiles we get

and solving the given expression :

3x(2x-1)

since solving the expression using tiles   and solving the expression algebraically we get the same answer

thus   we can choose the first statement as the answer to this problem which is "he used the algebra tiles correctly".
