(x - 12)(x + 4) = 9
x² + 4x - 12x - 48 = 9
x² - 8x - 48 = 9    |add 48 to both sides
x² - 8x = 57
x² - 2x · 4 = 57    |add 4² to both sides
x² - 2x · 4 + 4² = 57 + 4²    |use (a - b)² = a² - 2ab + b²
(x - 4)² = 57 + 16
(x - 4)² = 73 ⇔ x - 4 = √73 or x - 4 = -√73    |add 4 to both sides

x = 4 + √73 or x = 4 - √73

irina1246 [14]

Answer:

30 inches squared

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the area of the entire frame using length times height. 9*6 is 54 inches squared. Then, find the area of the middle space the same way. 6*4 is 24 inches squared. Lastly, subtract the middle from the entire frame's area. 54-24 is 30 inches squared.

A museum charges $12.50 for a one-day youth admission and $17.50 for a one-day adult admission. One Friday, the museum collected
tatuchka [14]

Answer:

number of youth admissions sold (x) = 74

number of adult admissions sold (y) = 32

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = number of youth admissions

Let y = number of adult admissions

Given:

  • total number of admissions sold = 106

⇒ x + y = 106

Given:

  • cost of youth admission = $12.50
  • cost of adult admission = $17.50
  • total amount collected = $1485

⇒ 12.5x + 17.5y = 1485

Rewrite  x + y = 106 to make y the subject:

⇒ y = 106 - x

Substitute  y = 106 - x  into 12.5x + 17.5y = 1485 and solve for x:

⇒ 12.5x + 17.5(106 - x) = 1485

⇒ 12.5x + 1855 - 17.5x = 1485

⇒ 5x = 370

⇒ x = 74

Substitute found value of x into y = 106 - x to find y:

⇒ y = 106 - 74

⇒ y = 32

I need help ASAP PLEASEEEEEEEE
Lorico [155]

Answer:

g has an average rate of change of zero at the intervals [-5,4] and [-2,2]

Step-by-step explanation:

When we talk of the average rate of change, we mean the change in y values divided by the change in x values

Once the change in y-values is zero, then over that interval, the average rate of change is zero

at the point t =- 5, g(t) = 6; at the point t = 4, g(t) = 6

As we can see here, within the interval [-5,4]; the average rate of change is 0

This same pattern is repetitive at points or ranges where we have same values for g(t)

such as;

[-2,2]
