The equation has three factors and equals zero
One of the factors must be zero.
Either 3x = 0 which means x = 0
or x - 4 = 0 which means x = 4
or 3x + 5 = 0 which means 3x = -5 so x = -5/3
The answer is C
E cannot be correct in this question as you are asked to “solve” and not just pick a correct option
Answer:
The average rate of change of the cost of a pack is 22 cents per year.
Another name for the average <em>rate of change</em> is <em>slope</em>.
Step-by-step explanation:
The average rate of change of the cost of a pack (
), in monetary units per year, is equal to the change in the average cost of a pack (
), in monetary units, divided by the change in time (
), in years. Then, the average rate of change is:


The average rate of change of the cost of a pack is 22 cents per year.
Another name for the average <em>rate of change</em> is <em>slope</em>.

Answer: Sometimes true</h3>
========================================================
Explanation:
-8+d is positive only when d > 8
Here's why
-8+d > 0
-8+d+8 > 0+8 .... add 8 to both sides
d > 8
So if Jessica said "d is greater than 8", then her claim would always be correct.
However, her claim is sometimes true.
Two counter examples could be when d = 1 and d = 2.
If d = 1, then -8+d = -8+1 = -7 which isn't positive.
If d = 2, then -8+d = -8+2 = -6 which also isn't positive.
Basically if d is anything smaller than 8, then you'll have -8+d be negative.
If d is something larger than 8, say d = 9, then -8+d = -8+9 = 1 which is finally positive.
