How do i solve this
MAXImum [283]

Answer:

x = 0, x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

- 4x² = - 12x ( add 12x to both sides )

- 4x² + 12x = 0 ← factor out - 4x from each term

- 4x(x - 3) = 0

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

- 4x = 0 ⇒ x = 0

x - 3 = 0 ⇒ x = 3

Which inequality does this graph represent
Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

y\leq -4x+25 is the correct representation of the graph.

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, if we look at the y-intercept, we can see that it is 25.

This means that we have narrowed down the options to the first and the second.

Next, our graph has a solid line. This means that we must have a \leq sign.

This means that the inequality y\leq -4x+25 is the correct representation of the graph.
