Gemiola [76]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:  1) (-∞, -6) U (-3, ∞)

               2) (-∞, -4) U (2, ∞)

               3) (-∞, -3) U (8, ∞)

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Find the zeros. Since the a-value is positive, the curve will be positive to the left of the leftmost zero and to the right of the rightmost zero.  +   -   +

                                                                                                     ←---|----|--→

1) y = x² + 9x + 18

  y = (x + 3)(x + 6)

 0 = (x + 3)(x + 6)

 0 = x + 3       0 = x + 6             +         --           +

 x = -3             x = -6              ←------|-----------|--------→

                                                     -6           -3

Positive Interval: (-∞, -6) U (-3, ∞)    

2) y = x² + 2x - 8

  y = (x + 4)(x - 2)

 0 = (x + 4)(x - 2)

 0 = x + 4       0 = x - 2              +         --          +

 x = -4             x = 2               ←------|-----------|--------→

                                                     -4            2

Positive Interval: (-∞, -4) U (2, ∞)    

3) y = x² - 5x - 24

  y = (x + 3)(x - 8)

 0 =  (x + 3)(x - 8)

 0 = x + 3       0 = x - 8               +        --           +

 x = -3             x = 8               ←------|-----------|--------→

                                                     -3            8

Positive Interval: (-∞, -3) U (8, ∞)

The science club at Jersey High School is sponsoring a dance to raise money for their spring project. They will charge $4 per st
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer: 195

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost per student = $4

Total number who attended = n

The cost of the total of student who attended will be cost per student multiplied by the total number of students, that is

Total cos = 4n

Since, they are to pay $140 , for publicity, then the total cost becomes

T = 4n - 140

From the last statement

4n - 140 ≥ 640

4n ≥ 640 + 140

4n ≥780

n ≥ 780/4

n ≥ 195

That means at least 195 students must attend if the science club is to earn at least $ 640
