Oliver works at a bookstore. He packed 20 identical paperbacks and 9 identical textbooks in a box. The total mass of the books w
as 44.4 pounds. After he put 1 more textbook and 5 more paperbacks in the box, the total mass of the books was 51 pounds.
Write a system of equations that can be used to determine p, the mass, in pounds, of one paperback, and t, the mass, in pounds, of one textbook.

The solutions of the quadratic equation x² - 5x - 36 = 0 are -4 and 9.
The graph is attached below.
- We are given a quadratic function.
- A polynomial equation of degree two in one variable is a quadratic equation.
- The function given to us is :
- y = x² - 5x - 36
- We need to find the solution of the quadratic function.
- To find the roots, let y = 0.
- x² - 5x - 36 = 0
- Use the quadratic formula.
- In elementary algebra, the quadratic formula is a formula that gives the solution(s) to a quadratic equation.
- x = [-b±√b²-4ac]/2a
- x = [-(-5) ± √25 - 4(1)(-36)]/2(1)
- x = (5 ± √25 + 144)/2
- x = (5 ± √169)/2
- x = (5 ± 13)/2
- x = 9 or x = -4

Answer:
Domain = ( -∞,∞), {x|x ∈ R}
Range (-∞,2], {y|y ≤ 2}
Vertex (h,k) = (6,2)
Step-by-step explanation:
(Domain / Range) The absolute value expression has a V shape. The range of a negative absolute value expression starts at its vertex and extends to negative infinity.
(Vertex) To find the x coordinate of the vertex, set the inside of the absolute value
x − 6 equal to 0 . In this case, x − 6 = 0 .
x−6=0
Add 6 to both sides of the equation.
x=6
Replace the variable x with 6 in the expression.
y=−1/3⋅|(6)−6|+2
Simplify−1/3⋅|(6)−6|+2.
y=2
The absolute value vertex is ( 6 , 2 ) .
(6,2)
