Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

A toy store sells accessories to go with the latest action figure. The store projects that it will sell a certain number of accessories for every box of a dozen action figures it orders. Let d represent one box of a dozen action figures.

The table below represents the actual number of each accessory sold per box of action figures.

[tex]\begin{array}{cccc}\text{Accessory}&\text{Turbo Jet Pack}&\text{X-Ray Visson Glasses}&\text{Invisible Shield}\\ \\\text{Expression }&6d+7&2d-5&10d+1\end{array}[/tex]

A new accessory, the Laser Saber, has sales equal to 1.5 times the difference of the number of Invisible Shields and X-Ray Vision Glasses.

Part A. The number of Laser Sabers:

[tex]1.5((10d+1)-(2d-5))[/tex]

Part B. Simplify previous expression:

[tex]1.5((10d+1)-(2d-5))=1.5(10d+1-2d+5)=1.5(8d+6)=12d+9[/tex]

Part C. Add all numbers:

[tex](6d+7)+(2d-5)+(10d+1)+(12d+9)\\ \\=(6d+2d+10d+12d)+(7-5+1+9)\\ \\=30d+12[/tex]

Part D. If the toy store sold 78 of the latest action figures, then they sold

[tex]78\div 12=6.5[/tex] dozens and

[tex]30\cdot 6.5+12=207[/tex]
