-3/5 × -4/9
= 4/15
The answer is option a. 4/15
The factorization of A is y = (x - 8)(x + 7).
The factorization of B is y = (x + 1)(x - 4)(x - 5)
In order to find these, you must first find where each graph crosses the x-axis. In the first problem it does so at 8 and -7. In order to find the correct parenthesis for those, you need to write it out as a statement and then solve for 0.
x = 8 ---> subtract 8 from both sides
x - 8 = 0
This means we use (x - 8) in our factorization.
You then need to repeat the process until you have all the pieces. In the second problem, there will be 3 instead of 2 since it crosses the axis 3 times.
STEP 1:
convert gallons to cups & calculate total number of cups
1 gallon= 16 cups
= 8 gallons * 16 cups/gallon
= 128 cups total
STEP 2:
calculate total cups estimated for 20 guests
= 20 guests * 2 cups/guest
= 40 cups needed for guests
STEP 3:
subtract the difference between step 1 and step 2 to find leftover punch
= 128 cups - 40 cups
= 88 cups leftover
OR
GALLONS LEFTOVER
= 88 ÷ 16 cups/gallon= 5 1/2 gallons
ANSWER: There will be 88 cups or 5 1/2 gallons of punch leftover.
Hope this helps! :)
It can't be f(1) = 1 because a function can't have two images on the same x.
