F(x) = x^2 - 3x - 18

Find the values that when multiplied equal -18 and when added equal -3 (6 and -3)
Plug it into f(x) = (x - 1st value)(x - 2nd value)

f(x) = (x - 6)(x + 3)
0 = (x - 6) (x + 3)

(One of the factors has to equal zero, so set them both equal to zero)

x - 6 = 0
x = 6

x + 3 = 0
x = -3

x = 6, x = -3

Write the equation of the circle centered at (0,1) with radius 15.

NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

$x^2+(y-1)^2=225$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The equation of the circle in center radius form is equal to

$(x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2$

where

(h,k) is the center of the circle

r is the radius of the circle

In this problem we have

$(h,k)=(0,1)\\r=15\ units$

substitute

$(x-0)^2+(y-1)^2=15^2$

$x^2+(y-1)^2=225$

A party rental company has chairs and tables for rent. The total cost to rent

Tema [17]

2c+5t=43

c=(43-5t)/2

8c+3t=36 and using c found above in this equation gives you:

4(43-5t)+3t=36

172-20t+3t=36

-17t=-136

t=8, and since c=(43-5t)/2

c=1.5

So a table costs $8.00 to rent and a chair costs $1.50
