Answer:

x=-6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number

3x = x^2 -54

Subtract 3x

3x-3x = x^2 -3x-54

0 = x^2 -3x-54

Factor

What 2 numbers multiply to -54 and add to -3

-9*6 = -54

-9+6 = -3

0=(x-9) (x+6)

Using the zero product property

x-9=0    x+6=0

x=9  x=-6

The questions asks for the negative solution

x=-6

Determine whether the relation describe c as a function of w.
Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

Function:

c = f(w) = 0.49, 0 < w ≤ 1

            = 0.70,  1 < w ≤ 2

            = 0.91, 2 < w ≤ 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Yes, the relation described can be interpreted as a function.

Here, c is the cost of a mail letter. c depends upon w, which is the weights of the mail letter.

As described in the question, the relation can be expressed as a function.

c can be expressed as a function of w in the following manner:

c(cost of mail) = f(w), where w is the independent variable and c is the dependent variable

c = f(w) = 0.49, 0 < w ≤ 1

            = 0.70,  1 < w ≤ 2

            = 0.91, 2 < w ≤ 3

where, c is in dollars and w is in ounces.
