Y represent the total number of newspapers sold by Colby.
Part a: subtract 48-30=18
Part b: i found it by subtracting 48 -30 because it says left over
Answer:
The answer is (-5)(-9).
Step-by-step explanation:
As you multiply 2 negative number together, it will equals to positive number :
(-5)×(-9) = 45
Answer:
Prime.
Step-by-step explanation:

First let's multiply our outer coefficients in this case 1 and 8, so we have 1x8=8. Now the point of this is to get the factors of 8 and see if we can get that middle term -7. Factors of 8 are 1x8, 2x4 and that's it. From there I notice that -8+1 = -7 and so:

Notice that the (x-8) and (x+8) are not the same factors, therefore the factors are not any of those answer choices and so it's prime. You can calculate the factors by using the quadratic formula, however I think that is beyond the scope of this question.
By applying the definition of continuity and knowing piecewise functions, we know that the solution to this system of linear equations is c = 10 and d = -8.
<h3>How to make a piecewise function continuous</h3>
According to the <em>functional</em> theory, functions are continuous for a given interval if and only if the function has an only value for each element of the interval. In the case of the <em>piecewise</em> function, we must observe these two conditions:
2 · x = c · x² + d, for x = 1 (1)
4 · x³ = c · x² + d, for x = 2 (2)
Then, we have the following system of linear equations:
c + d = 2 (1b)
4 · c + d = 32 (2b)
The solution to this system of linear equations is c = 10 and d = -8.
