Your formula for this is

and

. Get everything on one side of the equals sign, set it equal to 0 and factor. When you do this you get (x-3)(x+27). The Zero Product Property rule tells us that either x-3 = 0 or x+27 = 0 and that x = 3 and -27. The only thing in math that will NEVER be negative besides time is distance/length, therefore, x cannot be 27 and has to be 3.
Answer:
The correct answer is "$5000".
Step-by-step explanation:
The given values are:
Two investments totaling,
= $47,500
Annual income,
= $3000
One investment yields per year,
= 9%
Other yield,
= 6%
Let,
- The amount invested in 9% will be "x".
- The amount invested in 6% will be "
".
Now,
⇒ 
⇒ 
⇒ 
⇒ 
⇒ 
⇒ 
In the general case, it is (x, y+3), where y = f(x).
well, let's split the hours in minutes, so since 1 hr is 60 minutes, so he can walk 2.833 miles in 60 minutes, well, 3 hrs is 3*60 = 180 minutes, then we add 15 minutes, that's 195 minutes.
if he can walk 2.833 miles in 60 minutes, how long will it be for 195 minutes?

Y = 5 - 4x
5 - 4x = x^2 - 2x - 19
0 = x^2 + 2x -24
0 = (x + 6)(x - 4)
Therefore x = -6 (Given) or 4
x = 4, y = -9
(4,-9) is the other solution
