Well.. for the equation x= 3.5, let's take a look at its values
so.. notice.. no matter what "y" is, "x" will always be 3.5,
so is really just a horizontal line, thus, look at the picture below
<span>•<span>If
the raw score is transformed into a z-score, however, the value of the z-score
tells exactly where the score is located relative to all the other scores in
the distribution. </span></span>
G(x) = 3x + 4
g(-4) = 3(-4) + 4
g(-4) = -12 + 4
g(-4) = -8
They will have the same amount of money after 7 weeks.
We first set these equal to each other:
36+4x=x²+15
We want to gather all of the variables on one side. Subtract 4x from both sides:
36+4x-4x=x²+15-4x
36=x²-4x+15
We want the equation to be equal to 0 to solve it, so subtract 36 from both sides:
36-36=x²-4x+15-36
0=x²-4x-21
We can factor this expression. We want factors of -21 that sum to -4; -7(3)=-21 and -7+3=-4:
0=(x-7)(x+3)
Using the zero product property, we know that x-7=0 or x+3=0; this means x=7 or x=-3. Since a negative number of weeks makes no sense, the answer is 7 weeks.
A . y = 2(18 + x)
b. y = (8 + x)(10 + x)
or y = x^2 + 80 + 18x
