The number is x
it is negative
the square is 28 more than 3 times itself
x²=28+3x
minus (28+3x)
x²-3x-28=0
factor
(x-7)(x+4)=0
set to zero
x-7=0
x=7
this is not the answer because we were told the number was negative
x+4=0
x=-4
correct
the number is -4
test
(-4)²=28+3(-4)
16=28-12
16=16
check
the number is -4

Check the picture below, it hits the ground at 0 feet, where it came from, the ground, and when it came back down.
Answer:
15 square feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiply 1.5 by 3 which equals 4.5
Multiply 1.5 by 2 which equals 3
Add the above answers (4.5 plus 3)
Then multiply by 2 (7.5 times 2)
It equals 15
I hope this helps and that this is the right problem. There is no picture shown but I just did this problem for someone else so I thought I would take a shot at it :)
At least 14 economy and at least 5 deluxe...total of 45 seats. He makes a bigger profit from selling economy seats....so we need the most economy seats we can get.
45 seats - 5 deluxe = 40 economy
so the most profit would be 40 economy and 5 deluxe
40 economy = (40 x 30) = 1200 profit
5 deluxe = (5 x 25) = 125 profit
for a maximum profit of : $ 1325
