Answer:

x = -8 and x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

given

f(x) = (x+8) (x - 4)

recall that at any point on the x-axis, y = 0 [i.e f(x) = 0]

hence to find where the graph crosses the x-axis, we simply substitue f(x) = 0 into the equation and solve for x

f(x) = (x+8) (x - 4)

0 = (x+8) (x - 4)

Hence

either,

(x+8) = 0 ----> x = -8  (first crossing point)

or

(x-4) = 0 ------> x = 4 (second crossing point)

Hence the graph crosses the x-axis at x = -8 and x = 4

liberstina [14]

Answer:

<u>188 children</u> and <u>145 adults</u> were admitted in the park.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The admission fee at an amusement park is $1.50 for children and $4 for adults.

Total $862 collected on a certain day when 333 people enter the park.

Now, to find the children and adults admitted in the park.

<u><em>Let the number of children admitted be </em></u>x.<u><em /></u>

<u><em>And the the number of adults admitted be </em></u>y.<u><em /></u>

So, the total people enter the park:

x+y=333\\\\x=333-y\ \ \ ...(1)

Thus, the total amount collected of the admission fee:

1.50(x)+4(y)=862\\\\

Substituting the value of x from equation (1):

1.50(333-y)+4(y)=862\\\\499.50-1.50y+4y=862\\\\499.50+2.50y=862\\\\Subtracting\ both\ sides\ by\ 499.50\ we\ get:\\\\2.50y=362.50\\\\Dividing\ both\ sides\ by\ 2.50\ we\ get:\\\\y=145.

<u><em>Thus, the number of adults = 145.</em></u>

Now, to get the number of children by substituting the value of y in equation (1) we get:

x=333-y\\\\x=333-145\\\\x=188.

<u><em>Hence, the number of children = 188.</em></u>

Therefore, 188 children and 145 adults were admitted in the park.
