For this case, the first thing we want to do is substitute the value of y = 15 in the equation.
 We have then:
 15 = -0.08x ^ 2 + 1.6x + 10
 Rewriting we have:
 0 = -0.08x ^ 2 + 1.6x + 10 - 15
 0 = -0.08x ^ 2 + 1.6x - 5
 The solutions are:
 x1 = 3.876275643042054
 x2 = 16.123724356957947
 Nearest whole number:
 x1 = 4
 x2 = 16
 were about 15 tons of trout caught in the lake in the years:
 1995 + 4 = 1999
 1995 + 16 = 2011
 Answer:
 The year 1999 and the year 2011

Simplify 14x+5[6-(2x+3)]
faust18 [17]

Answer:

4x + 15

Step-by-step explanation:

A = 14x + 5[6 - (2x + 3)]

  = 14x + 5[6 - 2x - 3]

  = 14x + 30 - 10x - 15

  = (14x - 10x ) + (30 - 15)

  = 4x + 15

Hope this helps!
