Answer:

x = 0 or 1
x = ±i/4
x = -5 (twice)

Step-by-step explanation:

Factoring is aided by having the equations in standard form. The first step in each case is to put the equations in that form. The zero product property tells you that a product is zero when a factor is zero. The solutions are the values of x that make the factors zero.

1. x^2 -x = 0

x(x -1) = 0 . . . . . x = 0 or 1

2. 16x^2 +1 = 0

This is the "difference of squares" ...

(4x)^2 - (i)^2 = 0

(4x -i)(4x +i) = 0 . . . . . x = -i/4 or i/4 (zeros are complex)

3. x^2 +10x +25 = 0

(x +5)(x +5) = 0 . . . . . x = -5 with multiplicity 2

3) Last year Kerry’s take home pay was £15 000 She spent 40% of her take home pay on rent. She used the rest of her take home pa

gregori [183]

3,000. You take 15,000 and multiply by .4 to get how much she spent on rent (6,000). They you subtract the rent money from her total pay to get her money that she spent on living expenses, clothes and entertainment in total (9,000). Since she spent her money in six parts (3+2+1), you divide 9,000 by 6 to get 1,500 to get each part. Since for entertainment she has two parts you multiply 1,500 by 2 to get 3,000.

** WILL GIVE 15 POINTS FOR THIS ONE QUESTION + BRAINLIEST **

densk [106]

Answer:

x + 4y ≤ 15; y ≥ 0

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph doesn't do a very good job of modeling any of the given equations. However, the equations listed above seem the best fit.

The slope of the top (left) line is negative, so the equation will be of the form ...

x + 4y = something

When y=0, x=15, so the "something" is expected to be 15.

However, the line appears to go through points (6, 2) and (-2, 4). Both of these points are on the line x + 4y = 14.

The graph is shaded <em>below the line</em> so the values of x and y that are in the shaded area will add to <em>less than</em> 15 (or 14). Hence, the inequality will be ...

x + 4y ≤ something . . . . . part of the 3rd answer choice

The fact that the shading does not go below y=0 means the other limit is ...

y ≥ 0 . . . . . part of every answer choice.
