The answer is c, 2.To find this, look on the graph for a point with the y value of -1. (2,-1) is the solution.
So lets start out this problem with the initial amount of money jesse has:
$36.50 x (2 (times a month)) x (3 months) = $219
Then, you take 1/4 of his money (which can be converted to the decimal 0.25) and you subtract it from $219
$219 - ($219 x 0.25)
$219 - $54.75 = $164.25
Next, you have to subtract Jesse's lunch ($14.25) from the money he has left after purchasing his tow rope and bathing suit.
$164.25 - $14.25 = $150
Jesse's wake board cost him $150.

The reason i say this is because i don't really want to run into something that i don't know much about. I do know quite a bit about extinct animals more than i do aliens. So, that's my reasoning.

To expand the given expression we proceed as follows:
(6x²-2x-6)(8x²+7x+8)
=6x²(8x²+7x+8)-2x(8x²+7x+8)-6(8x²+7x+8)
=48x⁴+42x³+48x²-16x³-14x²-16x-48x²-42x-48
putting like terms together:
48x⁴+(42x³-16x³)+(48x²-48x²)+(-16x-42x)-48
=48x⁴+26x³+0x²-58x-48
hence the answer is:
48x⁴+26x³-58x-48
