Answer:

The number of pounds collected by Steve is 39-j

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

j----> the number of pounds collected by Joy

s ---> the number of pounds collected by Steve

we know that

j+s=39

Solve for s

That means-----> Isolate the variable s

Subtract j both sides

s=39-j

Determine the x-intercepts of the quadratic funtion given in factored form f(x)=4(2x-1)(3x+5)
DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

x=1/2, x=-5/3

Step-by-step explanation:

The x intercepts are where y =0

f(x)=4(2x-1)(3x+5)

0 = 4(2x-1)(3x+5)

Using the zero product property

2x-1 =0   and 3x+5 =0

2x-1+1 =0+1      3x+5-5=0-5

2x=1                 3x=-5

2x/2 = 1/2            3x/3  =-5/3

x = 1/2             x = -5/3

Solve for y:5x-8y=40
bearhunter [10]

Solve for y means we need to isolate y from the equation:

We need to use inverse operations to solve equations:

\begin{gathered} 5x-8y=40 \\ -8y=40-5x \\ y=\frac{-5}{-8}x+\frac{40}{-8} \\ y=\frac{5}{8}x-5 \end{gathered}
