A newly launched clothing line is rapidly increasing in popularity. Every month 20% more items of clothing are sold. If 70,800 items were sold this month how many items will be sold 10 months from now

212,400 items were sold in 10 months.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Items sold this month = 70,800

Percent Increase in every month = 20%

We need to find number of items sold in coming 10 months.

Solution:

First we will find number of items increase in each month.

number of items increase in each month can be calculated by Percent Increase in every month multiplied by Items sold this month and the divided by 100.

number of items increase in each month =

Now we will find number of item sold in 10 months.

number of item sold in 10 months is equal to sum of Items sold this month and number of items increase in each month multiplied by 10.

framing in equation form we get;

number of item sold in 10 months =

Hence 212,400 items were sold in 10 months.

y < -3

step-by-step explanation:

-3y - 2 > 7

-3y -2 + 2 > 7+2

-3y > 9

-3y/-3 < 9/-3   (change the inequality sign when multiplying or dividing by a negative number)

y < -3

the correct option is:

b. a value of the variable that makes the polynomial equal to zero.

the root or roots of a polynomial are the values of the variable that makes the polynomial equal to 0. we can find the roots of a polynomial making the expression equal to 0 and then, isolating the variable (it it has just one variable).

for example, given the following polynomial:

the root or zero of the polynomial, can be found by making the expression equal to 0, and then, isolating the variable, so, finding the root we have:

therefore, we have that the root of the polynomial is equal to 2.

we must remember that the number of roots that a polynomial can have, will depend on the degree of the polynomial, a first degree polynomial have will have one single root, a second degree polynomial (quadratic expression) may have two roots and so.

hence the correct option is:

b. a value of the variable that makes the polynomial equal to zero.

have a nice day!
