Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
x-intercept means f(x) = 0
(x-8)(x+9) = 0 ⇒ x = 8 or x = - 9
There are two points which are x-intercepts. They are (8,0) and (-9,0).
Answer:
56kmn
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be equal to the number of drinks Yasmine consumed.
Jose had 2 times that drink so his number of consumed drink would be represented by 2x.
Sally had 3 fewer drink than Jose so her number of consumed drinks would be represented by 2x-3.
Altogether, the three of them consumed 72 drinks so your equation would be:
x+2x+(2x-3)=72
add like terms together:
5x-3=72
have the term with x be alone on one side of the equation, in this case by adding three to both sides:
5x=75
now divide both sides by five for the value of x and your answer is.....
x=15
