12-(12 divided by z) make sure divided by is not in words :)hope it helped
The answer is A, all that was needed was to do the math.
Answer with explanation:
<u>Part A: </u>
One solution.
The number of points of intersection represents the number of solutions. Since the two lines only intersect at one point, there is only one solution.
<u>Part B:</u>
(3, 4)
The point(s) of intersection marks the solution(s) to the lines. Since lines A and B intersect at the point (3, 4), the solution to the equation of their lines is (3, 4), or 
, as coordinates are written as (x, y).
To solve this problem, we are going to set up an equation. Let the number that we are trying to find be represented by the variable x. If we plug in the numbers that we know, we get the following equation:
3x/4 = 24
To simplify this equation, we need to multiply both sides by 4, to begin getting the x alone on the left side of the equation.
3x = 96
Finally, we need to divide both sides by 3, to get rid of the coefficient that is being multiplied to x.
x = 32
Therefore, the number that you are trying to find is 32.
Since y equals the product of the factors, any value for x which makes any factor equal to zero is a point where the graph touches the x-axis.
x=-5 and 2 (technically the points (-5,0) and (2,0))
