well, is noteworthy that an x-intercept is when y = 0 or namely is a solution or root of the quadratic, so we know then that the x-intercepts or solutions are at (-1,0) and (3,0), that simply means that

14 because you can make 2 bows with 1 yard and 7 x 2 is 14
Answer:
yes indeed..... (wdm? u never finished the question)
Step-by-step explanation:
Nickels = x
dimes = x + 4
quarters = x
Value of coins:
nickel = 5 cents
dime = 10 cents
quarter = 25 cents
5x + 10(x + 4) + 25x = 3.20
5x + 10x + 40 + 25x = 320
40x = 320 - 40
40x = 280
x = 280/40
x = 7
There are 7 quarters, 7 nickels and 11 dimes.
