Set the equations each to each other and solve for x
f(x) = g(x)
x^2 - 3x = 2x+14
x^2-3x-2x-14 = 0
x^2-5x-14 = 0 .... see note below
(x-7)(x+2) = 0
x-7 = 0 or x+2 = 0
x = 7 or x = -2
The two solutions are x = 7 or x = -2

note: we technically could stop at this line and divert to another path. Instead of finding the actual solutions, we can use the discriminant formula
d = b^2 - 4ac
to find the value of d. It turns out that
d = (-5)^2 - 4(1)(-14)
d = 81
which is a positive number. So that shows we have two solutions.

Write the equation for the graph shown below
ira [324]

Answer:

y=0.5x-1

Step-by-step explanation:

First you need to find the gradient of the line. Since x goes up by 0.5 every time y goes up by 1, the gradient is 0.5. Then you need to find the y intercept which is what x equals when y is equal to 0. When y equals zero x equals negative 1. If ylu use the equation y=mx+c where m=gradient and c=y intercept you get y=0.5x-1

How is multiplying fractions the same as multiplying whole numbers and different
gtnhenbr [62]
Well one similarity is that since you have to multiply, integer rules still apply and that you can also multiply variables. A difference is that with fractions, you have to make a number into an improper fraction rather than just the regular way which would most likely be the whole number with a decimal.

A company's stock is valued at $25.15 per share. The stock is losing value at rate of $1.75 per day. What is the stocks value af
Marina CMI [18]
Equation would be: 25.15 - 1.75x
Where, x = number of days.

Substitute for x = 3, 
= 25.15 - 1.75(3)
= 25.15 - 5.25
= 19.90

In short, Your Answer would be $19.90

Hope this helps!
