I dont get it look like you already did
x-intercept means f(x) = 0
(x-8)(x+9) = 0 ⇒ x = 8 or x = - 9
There are two points which are x-intercepts. They are (8,0) and (-9,0).
Answer: Choice D
Explanation:
The increase of 9.8% rounds to 10% when rounding to the nearest ten
An increase of 10% would use the multiplier 1.1
Think of it like saying 1 + 0.10 = 100% + 10%
Similarly, the 5.1% rounds to 5% and an increase of this amount will use the multiplier 1.05
So if we started with 20 items, then 20(1.1)(1.05) is the expression that estimates an increase of 10% followed by an increase of 5%. The order doesn't matter (so you could increase by 5% first, then 10% later).
Answer:
(x, y) = (2 2/9, -1 4/9)
Step-by-step explanation:
Equate the values of y and solve for x.
1/4x -2 = -2x +3
(2 1/4)x = 5 . . . . . . . . add 2+2x to both sides
x = 20/9 = 2 2/9 . . . multiply by 4/9
y = -2(2 2/9) +3 = -4 4/9 +3 . . . . substitute for x in the second equation
y = -1 4/9
The solution is x = 2 2/9, y = -1 4/9.
