Answer:

x1= -4

x2 = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Set the equation equal to zero

x2 − 16 = 0

then

(x + 4)(x − 4) = 0

(x+4)= 0 which is equal to -4

and

(x-4)= 0 equals 4

A1 Plumbing Service charges $35 per hour plus a $25 travel charge for a service call. Good Guys Plumbing Repair charges $40 per

AlladinOne [14]

A1 = 35x+25

Good guys = 40x

35x+25 = 40x

subtract 3x x from each side

25 = 5x

divide each side by 5

x = 25/5 = 5

so 5 hours they would be the same cost, anything over 5 hours and A1 would be better

so X>5 for A1 to be the better price
