Answer:
• Gayle: 14
• Crystal: 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Let g represent the number of paperclips Gayle has. Then 42/g is the number Crystal has. The relationship between the two numbers is said to be ...
g - (42/g) = 11
Multiplying by g gives ...
g^2 -42 = 11g
g^2 -11g -42 = 0 . . . . subtract 11 g to put into standard form
To factor this, you are looking for two factors of -42 that sum to -11.
-42 = -42·1 = -21·2 = -14·3 = -7·6
You can see that -14 and 3 sum to -11, so the factoring is ...
(g -14)(g +3) = 0
g = 14 . . . . . . . . . . makes the product zero. (The g=-3 solution is extraneous.)
Gayle has 14 paperclips and Crystal has 3.
Answer:
Below in bold.
Step-by-step explanation:
x-intercepts (-3,0) and (6, 0)
y-intercept (0, -5)
Axis of symmetry:
(-3 + 6) / 2 = 1.5
x = 1.5.
Domain = all real x.
Range is f(x) ≥ -6.
Graph is positive for x < -3 and x > 6.
Negative for -3 < x < 6.
Increasing for x > 1.5 and decreasing for x < 1.5.
Answer:
y-intercept (b)
Step-by-step explanation:
If you are working with a slope-intercept equation, that is
y = mx + b
Then you want to put the y-intercept on the graph first. It is the b in the equation it is often at the end of the equation. It is the number that is NOT right next to the x.
Then use the slope (the m, that IS right next to the x) to find the next point. Slope is like directions from one point to another.
Then you can draw the line.
The answer that i got was .163 because i divided the 1.63 dollars total by the total ounces (10) and got .163
