Since both are equivalent to y, the equations must be equivalent.
x^2-x-3= -3x+5
x^2+2x-8=0
(x+4)(x-2)=0
x=-4, x=2
Plug the values of x in to either equation
y=-3(-4)+5
y= 12+5
y=17
y= -3(2)+5
y=-6+5
y=-1
Final answer: (-4,17) and (2,-1)
area = 1/2 *b*h
1/2 * 15 * 8 = 60 square units
You will take 44+(40/100 * 44) = 44 + 17.6 = $61.60 ($61.60 is going to be the retail price of the lamp).
0.005 would be 5/1000 because how I know if it is 10ths or 100ths or 1000ths I count all the number on the right side of the decimal, hoped this could help!
