I can't understand what you have written and what to find
Answer:
x = -8 and x = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
given
f(x) = (x+8) (x - 4)
recall that at any point on the x-axis, y = 0 [i.e f(x) = 0]
hence to find where the graph crosses the x-axis, we simply substitue f(x) = 0 into the equation and solve for x
f(x) = (x+8) (x - 4)
0 = (x+8) (x - 4)
Hence
either,
(x+8) = 0 ----> x = -8 (first crossing point)
or
(x-4) = 0 ------> x = 4 (second crossing point)
Hence the graph crosses the x-axis at x = -8 and x = 4
Amount of money collected in the 2-day fundraiser is represented by the following equations:
- 12x + 4y = 152 .................. (i)
- 32x + 12y = 420 .................. (ii)
where x is the cost of a chicken lunch and y is the cost of a vegetarian lunch
Multiplying (i) with 3 and subtracting it from (ii)
36x + 12y - (32x + 12y) = 456 - 420
⇒ 4x = 36
⇒ x = 9
Put value of x in (i)
⇒ 12 × 9 + 4y = 152
⇒ 108 + 4y = 152
⇒ 4y = 44
⇒ y = 11
Hence, cost of the vegetarian meal is 11.
