A beetle is down in the ground and he digs down to find an ant. A beetle starts at 2 inches below ground level. The beetle digs down of the distance, d, that the ant is below ground level. The beetle is now at 4 inches below ground level. What is the distance, d, the ant is below ground level? Write an equation that best represents how to find the distance that the ant is below ground level.

Someone answer asap for ! a discount store’s prices are 25% lower than department store prices. the function c(x) = 0.75x can be used to determine the cost c, in dollars, of an item, where x is the department store price, in dollars. if the item has not sold in one month, the discount store takes an additional 20% off the discounted price and an additional $5 off the total purchase. the function d(y) = 0.80y - 5 can be used to find d, the cost, in dollars, of an item that has not been sold for a month, where y is the discount store price, in dollars. create a function d(c(x)) that represents the final price of an item when a costumer buys an item that has been in the discount store for a month. d(c(x)) =
