Answer:
x = - 5, x = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
f(x) = x² + x - 20
To find the zeros equate f(x) to zero, that is
x² + x - 20 = 0
Consider the factors of the constant term ( - 20) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term ( + 1)
The factors are + 5 and - 4, since
5 × - 4 = - 20 and + 5 - 4 = + 1, hence
(x + 5)x - 4) = 0 ← in factored form
Equate each factor to zero and solve for x
x + 5 = 0 ⇒ x = - 5
x - 4 = 0 ⇒ x = 4

20 hundreds =20*100=2000;
this is two thousand, so it is made of 2 thousands.</span></span>
Money spent + money left over = total money
money spent + 9 = 30
We don't know the price of each shirt, so let x = price of 1 shirt.
Then, 3 shirts cost 3 times as much as x, or 3x.
She spent 3x.
3x + 9 = 30
Distribute the -2 to get
-16x + 8 < 2x + 5
3 < 18x
1/6 < x
so x > 1/6
