Answer: 72 cars.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let be "x" the number of toys that Moby had to start with.
According to the information given in the exercise, Moby sold half his toy car collection. This can be represented with the following expression:
Then he bought 12 more cars, giving a total amount of 48 toy cars.
Therefore, the equation that represents this situation is the equation shown below:
Now you must solve for "x" in order to find its value.
You get that this is:
Answer: (-2, 5) and (2, -3)
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Graph the line y = -2x + 1 (which is in y = mx + b format) by plotting the y-intercept (b = 1) on the y-axis and then using the slope (m = -2) to plot the second point by going down 2 and right 1 unit from the first point:
y - intercept = (0, 1) 2nd point = ( -1, 1).
Graph the parabola y = x² - 2x - 3 by first plotting the vertex and then plotting the y-intercept (or some other point):
vertex = (1, -4) 2nd point (y-intercept) = (0, -3)
<em>see attached</em> - the graphs intersect at two points: (-2, 5) and (2, -3)
= 5x + 35 = -3
- 35 = -35
5x = -38
/ 5 = / 5
x = -7.6
