Answer:
$8
Step-by-step explanation:
5 increase 60% =
5 × (1 + 60%) = 5 × (1 + 0.6) = 8
so, this is a quadratic equation, meaning two solutions, and we have a factored form of it, meaning you can get the solutions by simply zeroing out the f(x).
![\bf \stackrel{f(x)}{0}=-(x-3)(x+11)\implies 0=(x-3)(x+11)\implies x= \begin{cases} 3\\ -11 \end{cases} \\\\\\ \boxed{-11}\stackrel{\textit{\large 7 units}}{\rule[0.35em]{10em}{0.25pt}}-4\stackrel{\textit{\large 7 units}}{\rule[0.35em]{10em}{0.25pt}}\boxed{3}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cbf%20%5Cstackrel%7Bf%28x%29%7D%7B0%7D%3D-%28x-3%29%28x%2B11%29%5Cimplies%200%3D%28x-3%29%28x%2B11%29%5Cimplies%20x%3D%20%5Cbegin%7Bcases%7D%203%5C%5C%20-11%20%5Cend%7Bcases%7D%20%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%20%5Cboxed%7B-11%7D%5Cstackrel%7B%5Ctextit%7B%5Clarge%207%20units%7D%7D%7B%5Crule%5B0.35em%5D%7B10em%7D%7B0.25pt%7D%7D-4%5Cstackrel%7B%5Ctextit%7B%5Clarge%207%20units%7D%7D%7B%5Crule%5B0.35em%5D%7B10em%7D%7B0.25pt%7D%7D%5Cboxed%7B3%7D)
so the zeros/solutions are at x = 3 and x = -11, now, bearing in mind the vertex will be half-way between those two, checking the number line, that midpoint will be at x = -4, so the vertex is right there, well, what's f(x) when x = -4?

The range of a function is the set of numbers used as y-coordinates.
Let's look at the y-coordinates of the points in the graph.
There are points in the graph with all y-coordinates greater than -3.
There are points in the graph with all y-coordinates less then -3.
At exactly -3, there is no point on the graph with that y-coordinate.
We expect the graph to behave as it is shown above 7 and below -7, so the only value excluded from the y-coordinates is -3.
Answer: B. All real numbers except -3
The
first graph.
The equation is x - 1

In order to solve it, you need to get x by itself.
Add 1 to both sides. 3+1=4
x

4
Since this is your sign

the arrow has to point towards the left, and the circle needs to be colored in.

Answer:
y =
and x = 
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve simultaneous equations, you need to have the number in front of both x's or y's the same. (signs doesn't matter)
To get -x to -10x we simply need to multiply the first equation by 10:
-x * 10 = -10x
-9y * 10 = -90y
16 * 10 = 160
-10x - 90y = 160
Now we can add the two equations:
-10x + 10x = 0
-90y + 20y = -70y
160 + 20 = 180
-70y = 180
70y = -180
7y = -18
y = 
Now plug
into the second equation:
10x + 20(
) = 20
10x -
= 20
Move the
over to the other side, making it a positive:
10x = 20 + 
10x = 
Divide both sides by 10:
x = 
So y =
and x =
