Answer:
Cost of Blanket = 32
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the cost of a blanket be = b , cost of a scarf be = s. Blanket price x Blanket Quantity & Scarf Price x Scarf Quantity sum up to be total sales.
So, Day 1 : 2b + 5s = 104 (i) , Day 2 : 3b + 4s = 128 (ii)
Solving equations : Multiplying (i) by 3 , & (ii) by 2 , we get
6b + 15s = 312 ,
(-)6b + (-)8s = (-)256
By elimination method, 15s - 8s = 312 - 256 → 7s = 56 → s = 56 / 7 = 8 .
Putting s value in any equation i], 2b + 5 (8) = 104 → 2b + 40 = 104 → 2b = 104 - 40 = 64 → b = 64 / 2 = 32

Answer:
About 95 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's set up a proportion using the following set up:
miles / gallons = miles / gallons
We know the car can travel 38 miles on 2.4 gallons of gas.
38 miles / 2.4 gallons = miles/ gallons
We don't know how far the car can travel on 6 gallons. Therefore, we can say the car travels x miles on 6 gallons of gas.
38 miles / 2.4 gallons = x miles /6 gallons
38/2.4=x/6
We want to find x (miles for 6 gallons). Therefore, we must isolate x.
x is being divided by 6. The inverse of division is multiplication. Multiply both sides by 6.
6*(38/2.4)=(x/6)*6
6*(38/2.4)=x
6*15.8333333=x
94.9999998=x
Let's round to the nearest whole number. The 9 in the tenth place tells us to round up.
95 ≈x
x ≈95 miles
The car can travel about 95 miles on 6 gallons of gas.
That would be
f(x) = (x - 2)(x - 3)(x + 3)
expanded this is f(x) = (x - 2)(x^2 - 9)
= x^3 - 2x^2 - 9x + 18
