Answer:

x=1,-5

Step-by-step explanation:

We\ are\ given\ that,\\4x+5=x(x+8)\\Hence\ by\ expanding\ the\ terms,\\4x+5=x^2+8x\\Hence\ by\ moving\ 4x\ and\ 5 to\ the\ RHS\ ,\\0=x^2+8x-4x-5\\Hence\ by\ simplifying\ the\ RHS,\\0=x^2+4x-5\\Now,\\We\ take\ a\ closer\ look\ at\ the\ RHS,\\x^2+4x-5\ can\ also\ be\ written\ as:\\=x^2+5x-x-5\\Now, By\ factorizing,\\x(x+5)-1(x+5)\\=(x-1)(x+5)\\Hence,\\(x-1)(x+5)=0\\Now,\\To\ nullify\ the\ LHS\ to\ 0,\ either\ the\ term\ (x-1)\ or/and\ (x+5)\ should\ equate\ to\ 0.\\Hence,\\x-1=0\\x=1\ is\ our\ first\ solution\\(x+5)=0\\x=-5\ is\ our\ second\ solution\\Hence,\\x=1,-5

A hot air balloon is currently at a height of 900 feet. The balloon is descending by 10 feet minute. Find a function for the bal
mylen [45]

Answer:

y=-10x+900

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x -----> the number of minutes

y ----> the balloon's height in feet

we know that

The linear equation in slope intercept form is equal to

y=mx+b

where

m is the slope

b is the y-coordinate of the y-intercept

In this problem we have that

The slope is equal to

m=-10\ \frac{ft}{min} ----> is negative because is a decreasing function

b=900\ ft

Remember that the y-intercept is the value of y when the value of x is equal to zero

In this context the y-intercept is the height of the balloon when the time is equal to zero (initial height)

substitute

y=-10x+900

Kruka [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

the domain is gonna be ur x values and ur range is gonna be ur r(x) values

the domain has to do with the number of t-shirts.....and it can range from 0 to 25.......so it would be written as : [0,25]...include the brackets....not parenthesis...or all whole numbers from 0 to 25

the range has to do with the money made....and it can range from : -100 to 200....so it would be written as : [ -100,200] ..use brackets and not parenthesis.
