Answer:

x=5    x=3

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 – 8x + 15

What two numbers multiply to 15 and add to -8

-5*-3 = 15

-5 +-3 = -8

(x-5) (x-3) =0

Using the zero product property

x-5 =0         x-3 =0

x=5                x=3

Answer:

x=5 or x=3

Step-by-step explanation:

find two numbers that add up to the middle number (-8) and multiply to equal the last number (15)

in this case -5 and -3 add to be -8 and multiply to be 15

add these numbers in place of -8x

x^2-5x-3x+15 now add parentheses

(x^2-5x) (-3x+15) take out common factors

(x-5)(x-3) now make each set of parentheses equal to zero

x-5=0 x-3=0 now solve

x=5 x=3

svp [43]

Answer:

y=-3.5x+9

Step-by-step explanation:

the slope is determined by the y1-y2/x2-x1 which is equaled to -5-2/4-2 which is equaled to -7/2 which is -3 1/2 which is your m value in y=mx+b and you graph to get your b value (y-intercept) which is 9

Amanda's penny bank is 2/3 full.
Annette [7]

Answer:

450 pennies

Step-by-step explanation:

2/3 ➡ 3/3 × 2/3 = 6/9

let's call it 9x

the bank contains 6x after she removes 100 pennies 4x is left

which means 2x = 100 pennies and x = 50 pennies

therefore the bank can carry 50 × 9 = 450 pennies

The function f(t) = -16t2 + 64t + 5 models the height of a ball that was hit into the
koban [17]

The best statement that compares the length of time each ball is in the air is seen in the second option.

<h3>What is the function of a quadratic equation?</h3>

A quadratic function follows the condition: f(x) = ax² + bx + c. Here (a, b, and c) are real numbers and a ≠ 0.  

From the given information:

  • The function f(t) = -16t² +64t + 5 models the height of a ball

Where;

  • time (t) ⇒ seconds
  • height (h) ⇒ feet

The table given is as follows:

Time (in seconds)                 height, g(t) in feet

0                                             4

1                                              36

2                                              36

3                                              4

From the table, when t = 0, the function becomes:

f(t) = -16t² +64t + 5

f(t) = -16(0)² + 64(0) + 5

f(t) = 5

Therefore, we can conclude that the best statement that compares the ball is: f(t) is in the air for about 5 seconds, and the ball represented by g(t) is in the air for about 3 seconds.
