7532 Question 1 of 7 The equation 4x – 45 = y is used to find your profit, y, in dollars from buying $45 of supplies and washing cars for $4 each. What does the x stand for?

x stands for the number of cars washed with the supplies.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

Profit equation; y = 4x - 45

Price of supplies = $45

Amount received per car wahed = $4

From the equation given, we can notice that the higher the value of x the higher the profit generated.

Since, for washing a car brings $4, 2 car is $8 and so on... So the value of x is the number of cars washed with the supplies.

x stands for the number of cars washed with the supplies.

For example, if we wash 15 cars. x = 15

y = 4(15) - 45 = 60 - 45

y = $15

a) one student is chosen from classroom a, then a student is chosen from classroom b.  

step-by-step explanation:

independent events are ones in which the probability of one event does not affect the probability of the second event.

one student is chosen from classroom a; this does not affect the chances of choosing a student from classroom b.   this makes these independent events.

when one card is chosen from a standard deck and then set aside before a second card is chosen, the probability of the second card being chosen changes.   this makes them dependent events.

when one student is chosen from classroom a and then a second student is chosen from classroom a, the probability of choosing the second student changes.   this makes them dependent events.

when a letter is chosen from the alphabet and then a second letter is chosen, the probability of choosing the second letter changes.   this makes them dependent events.
