Even though we are using variables, we still know that "difference" means subtraction. So, if the larger is x1 and x2, those variables go first. The smaller, y1 and y2 will go second. So our problem will look like this:
(x1 < x2 ? x2 : x1) - (y1 < y2 ? y1 : y2)
Each member of the team will get two thirds of an orange.
18 dollars because you do 4 x 450 and you get 1800 and that’s 18 dollars
<span>To do that, you need to set it all to zero and factor:
x^2+8x+15 = 0
(x+5)(x+3) = 0
then put both those in parentheses chunks in their own equations
x + 5 = 0
x + 3 = 0
and then simplify
x = -5
x = -3
So the two points where the parabola crosses the x-axis are -5 and -3.</span>
