<u>Answer:</u> The value of x can be either 5 or 10.
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
We are given:
Total profit, P = $5600
The given equation follows:
⇒ P = 600 + 1500x - 100x²
Putting value of P in above equation, we get:
⇒ -100x² + 1500x + 600 = 5600
⇒ -100x² + 1500x - 5000 = 0
⇒ 100x² - 1500x + 5000 = 0
Solving this equation by middle term split, we get:
⇒ 100(x² - 15x + 50) = 0
⇒ (x² - 10x - 5x + 50) = 0
⇒ x(x - 10) - 5(x -10) = 0
⇒ (x - 10)(x - 5) = 0
⇒ x = 10, 5
Hence, the value of x can be either 5 or 10.
Answer:
In this problem, "y" represents the integer that must be found or figured for. When a number and a representation are written this way, i.e. "8y", you must mulitply them. If there is more information, you can figure for "y". If there is no other information, "y" is simplied and the end result is "8y".
And I not sure what - 1 is but it might be subtraction.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

F(x) = 1 - x
f(-3) = 1 - (-3)
f(-3) = 4
Answer:
A = $8406.6
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Average rate 
Initial cost of painting 
Time 
We need to find the final amount of painting at the end of a 20-year.
Solution:
Using Exponential Growth rate formula as:
----------(1)
Where:
A = Final amount
a = Initial amount.
r = Rate as a decimal.
t = Time.
Now, we substitute all given values in equation 1.


Substitute
in above equation.

A = $8406.62
Therefore, value of the painting at the end of a 20-year A = $8406.6
