Answer:
The correct option is C
Step-by-step explanation:
if f(x)= x3 + x2 - 20x
Replace f(x) by y
y = x3 + x2 - 20x
0 =x3 + x2 - 20x
x3 + x2 - 20x = 0
Take out x as a common:
x(x2+x-20)=0
Find factors of x2+x+20.
x(x^2+4x-5x-20) = 0
x{x(x+4)-5(x+4)}=0
x(x+4)(x-5)=0
Set x= 0
x=0 , x+4=0 , x-5 =0
x=0, x=0-4 , x=0+5
x=0, x= -4, x=5
x=(0,5,-4)
The correct option is C....
Very easy question.
To find x intercept: Multiply y by 0. You get x=-5.
To find y intercept: Multiply x by 0. You get y=-5.
Let x = # of tickets sold in advance
Let y = # of tickets sold the day of
Cost of the tickets & total sales: 6x & 10y = 6828
You also know y = x + 206
Take the equation mentioned above y = x + 206 and sub it in anywhere the variable y is in the other equations so you'll have this:
6x + 10(x+206) = 6828
Now solve for x to get x = 298
To finish the problem, you must now find the number of y tickets sold.
Sub your x value that you found back into the equation y = x + 206 and you'll get y = 504.
So, 298 tickets were sold in advance and 504 tickets were sold the day of
