x²-8x=768
x²-8x-768=0
(x-32)(x+24)=0
x=32 x=-24
you use 32 because it can be negative
plug in for x
(32)(32-8)(1)=768
32×24=768
this isn't the completing the square method though this is zero product law
X=7
y=8 (I think) GOOD LUCK :)
First what your gonna do is find the slope. So y2-y1/x2-x1 so 17-12/220-120= 5/100 so 1/20. Then you have to put that into slope intercept form. So y=1/20x + b. Then plug in points for x and y. I’ll use 12 and 120. So 12 = 1/20(120)+ b = 12=6+b then subtract 6 from both sides to get b= 6. So your answer is y= 1/20x +6
C. Each bag weighs 6 ounces, 3 x 6 = 18. Then add the 22 ounces from the jewelry wire.
