It has to be noted that there are several ways to factor the item. One of these is shown below. 

The general form of a quadratic equation is,
            Ax² + Bx + C = 0

where A and B are numerical coefficients and C is the constant. If we are to express the given equation in this form, 
        2x² - 5x - 88 = 0

The sum of the roots, x₁ and x₂ is -B/A and the product is equal to C/A.

Sum: x₁ + x₂ = -(-5/2) = 5/2
 Product: x₁x₂ = -88/2 = -44

The values of x₁ and x₂ are 8 and -11/2.

The factors are (x - 8) and (x + 11/2)

<em>ANSWERS: 8 and -11/2. </em>

Answer:

14 ( c ) = Caleb's

12 ( c + 10 ) = Sergio's


Step-by-step explanation:

Caleb lifted 14 boxes so you multiply 14 by c which is the weight of each box and for Sergio he lifted 12 boxes although his weighed 10 pounds more so you add 10 to c which would equal c + 10 multiplied by 12

8000 people attended a football
Lyrx [107]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay, so this is impossible to tell the amount of spaces, but let's say it was 4000 for VIP and 4000 for Popular Stands. Multiply $30 by 4000, and you get $120k Earnings. To check your answer, Divide 120,000 by 4000, and you get $30 for each stand.

Now, let's move on with the VIP stands. A VIP Stand costs $50, so 4,000 x $50 = $200k earnings. To check your answer, divide 200,000 by 4000, and you get $50 for each VIP Stand.

If you need to find each variant, go by 1k seat increments, i.e. 1000 and 7000, 2000 and 6000, etc.

Glad I could help!
