Answer:

fourth option

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

f(x) = (x + 1)(x + 4)(x - 7)

To find the x- intercepts let f(x) = 0, that is

(x + 1)(x + 4)(x - 7) = 0

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x + 1 = 0 ⇒ x = - 1

x + 4 = 0 ⇒ x = - 4

x - 7 = 0 ⇒ x = 7

x- intercepts are (- 1, 0 ), (- 4, 0 ), (7, 0 )

x^2 - 9 = (x + 3)(x -3)

3x - 9 = 3(x - 3)

and

Common denominator would be 6(x+3)(x - 3)

Answer: 6(x+3)(x - 3)

house numbers on one side of a street are consecutive even integers. the sum of the first three house numbers on the street is 6

Vanyuwa [196]

Consecutive even integers..x, x + 2, x + 4

x + (x + 2) + (x + 4) = 6216
3x + 6 = 6216
3x = 6216 - 6
3x = 6210
x = 6210/3
x = 2070

x + 2 = 2070 + 2 = 2072
x + 4 = 2070 + 4 = 2074 <===house 3

Answer:

$x=2 , y=1$

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the second equation is fully simplified and we know what x equals, we plug the entire equation of x in for x in the top equation:

$5(3y-1)+10y=20$

Now solve for y.

$y=1$

Now plug y back into the bottom equation and solve for x.

$x=3(1)-1$

$x=2$
