38.98 because you get 15.59 and divide that by 40% you get 38.975 but since you're speaking in money it rounds to 38.98
Start by graphing each line.
• Because the first inequality is smaller than, it will have a dotted (- - -) line.
• Because the second inequality is smaller than or equal to, it will have a solid line (---).
Then, plug in points to see where your shading will go. If the statement is true (x = x), you will shade that area along the line.
0 is less than 2.
Do the same step for the other equation. Your solution to the problem is any point that lies between the shading from both inequalities (where the blue and red meet).
First you graph it using a graphing calculator, you look at the table of values to find out one point in which y= 0. The first one that comes up is when x=1.
If you don't have a graphing calculator you can use trial and error by inputing some numbers into x until you get y= 0.
Once you have an x value which makes y=0, you can start factorizing it.
you divide 6x3 +4x2 -6x - 4 into (x-1) which is when y =0
to get 6x2+10x+4
This can be used to write the polynomial as (x-1)(6x2 +10x+4)
you then factorize the second bracket, 6x2 +10x+4.
you can take the 2 outside to give you 2(3x2 +5x+2)
you can factorize this to become 2(3x+2)(x+1)
Now you just substitute your factorized second bracket into your unfactorized second bracket to give you 2(3x+2)(x+1)(x-1).
From this you can deduce that k= 1
