C would be your answer. The original equation is 4(x)^2 - 16. When you shift to the right, you subtract x by that amount. Then you subtract -16 by 3 to go down
A must be equal to b or be a multiple of b or -b in order to be an integer
example 5/5 is an integer (1)
60/5 is an integer (12) because 60 is a multiple of 5
-30/5 is an integer (-6) because -30 is a multiple of -5
Answer: 5 friends
Steps:
3.25x + 14 = 30.25
3.25x = 30.25 - 14
3.25x = 16.25
x = 16.25/3.25
x = 5
Check:
3.25x + 14 = 30.25
3.25(5) + 14 = 30.25
16.25 + 14 = 30.25
30.25 = 30.25 ✅
I would appreciate the brainliest if this was helpful had clear steps and was correct! :)
