Y=-4x because all you have to do is move the variable to the right by adding its opposite to both sides. So 4x+y-4x=0-4x. Then eliminate the opposites y=0-4x

Answer:
(x1, y1) = (1, 3)
(x2, y2) = (4, 12)
Step-by-step explanation:
y= x^2 - 4
y= 5x - 8
(substitute the value for y)
x^2 - 4 = 5x - 8
(solve the equation)
x = 1
x = 4
(substitute the values)
y = 5 × 1 - 8
y = 5 × 4 - 8
(solve the equations)
y = -3
y = 12
( the possible solutions are)
x1, y1 = 1, -3
x2, y2 = 4, 12
(check the solutions)
-3 = 1^2 - 4
-3 = 5 × 1 - 8
12 = 4^2 - 4
12 = 5 × 4 - 8
(simplify)
-3 = -3
-3 = -3
12 = 12
12 = 12
(the ordered pairs are the solutions)
common ratio = a4/a3 = a3/a2
8/a3 = a3/18
(a3)^2 = 8 * 18
(a3)^2 = 144
a3 = 12 or a3 = -12
common ratio = 8/12 or common ratio = 8/(-12)
common ratio = 2/3 or common ratio = -2/3
Answer: 12 or -12
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Givem the profit function
p(x) = −2000x2 + 18000x − 15000
We are to generate the price range that will generate a monthly profit of at least $25,000
Substitute into the function we have;
25000 = −2000x2 + 18000x − 15000
Divide through by 1000
25 = -2x²+18x-15
Rearrange
-2x²+18x-15-25 = 0
2x²-18x+40 = 0
Divide through by 2
x²-9x+20 = 0
Factorize
x²-5x-4x+20 = 0
x(x-5)-4(x-5) = 0
x-4 = 0 and x-5 = 0
x = 4 and x = 5
Hence the price range that will generate a monthly profit of at least $25,000 is between $4 and $5 inclusive
