Find the x and y intercepts of the following function. g(x)=x^2-5x-84

Mathematics

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the y- intercept let x = 0 in the function

g(0) = 0 - 0 - 84 = - 84 ← y- intercept

To find the x- intercepts let y = 0, that is

x² - 5x - 84 = 0

To factor the quadratic

Consider the factors of the constant term (- 84) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term

The factors are - 12 and + 7, since

- 12 × 7 = - 84 and - 12 + 7 = - 5, thus

(x - 12)(x + 7) = 0

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x - 12 = 0 ⇒ x = 12

x + 7 = 0 ⇒ x = - 7

x- intercepts are x = - 7 and x = 12

IgorC [24]
I found that the given prices are $ 4 per pack of pens and $ 3 per pack of penciles.

The question is how much the bookstore spent on pens.

Then you have to multiply the number packs of pens, which is 1,528, times the price per pack pens which is $ 4.

So, the answer is: 1528 packs of pens * $ 4 / pack of pens = $6112.
