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

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the ages of a Mother and her son is 78 , three years ago the mother is five times as old as the son, what is their present ages?

To solve this , let the age of the mother be x and the age of the son be y , from the first statement :

x + y = 78

Three years ago , the mother will be x- 3 and the son will be y - 3 , from the second statement:

x - 3 = 5 ( y-3)

x- 3 = 5y - 15

x - 5y = -12

The resulting equations are

x + y = 78

x - 5y = -12

This is called a simultaneous linear equation , that means it is a linear equation.

The side of a square is xcm , if the difference between the area and the perimeter is 12 , find the legth of its side.

Interpretation:

The formula for the area of a square is l^{2} and the perimeter is 4l , from the question , we have

x^{2} - 4x = 12

This is not a linear equation , it is simply a quadratic equation , so the situation is non linear

The depth of snow after n hours of a snowstorm is represented by the function f(n + 1) = f(n) + 0.8 where f(0) = 2.5. Which stat
Alja [10]
C

"When the storm began", it means it has been snowed for 0 hours, so n=0.
f(0)=2.5, thus the <span>depth of snow was 2.5 inches when the storm began.

f(n+1)=f(n)+0.8, so f(n+1)-f(n)=0.8
it means when the time increases by one hour, the depth of snow increases by 0.8 inches.</span>
