Add both the equations together to eliminate x

x+5y=8
-x+2y=-1

7y=7
y=1

Now fill in y into the original equation

x+5(1)=8
x+5=8
x=3

Now you can check by filling x and y into the second equation.

-(3)+2(1)=-1
-3+2=-1
-1=-1

So your answer will be (3, 1)

Job A pays better


there are roughly 52 weeks in a year so multiply that by 40 to get the total hours worked in a year. = 2,080

2,080 hours worked per year multiplied by the hourly pay 9.95 = 20,696

Job A pays $20,696 per year

Which equation is best represented by the graph above (x+1)(x-3)(x+2). please explain why
Nat2105 [25]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

y = (x +2)(x -1)(x -3) . . . . or . . . . y = x³ -2x² -5x +6

<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

The graph shows y=0 at x=-2, x=1, and x=3. These are called the "zeros" or "roots" of the function, because the value of the function is zero there.

When "a" is a zero of a polynomial function, (x -a) is a factor. This means the factors of the graphed function are (x -(-2)), (x -1) and (x -3). The function can be written as the product of these factors:

... y = (x +2)(x -1)(x -3) . . . . . the equation represented by the graph

Or, the product can be multiplied out

... y = (x +2)(x² -4x +3)

... y = x³ -2x² -5x +6 . . . . . the equation represented by the graph
