Answer:

12 sapphires

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call the number of sapphires x. This means the number of rubies is the total number of gems minus x, or 17-x.

# of Sapphires: x

# of Rubies:17-x

A sapphire is worth 5 (gold coins) each, and a ruby is worth 8.

We also know the total amount of money is 100 coins, so

5*x+8*(17-x)=100

5x+136-8x=100

-3x=-36

x=12

Remember:

# of Sapphires: x

# of Rubies:17-x

...so Lara found 12 sapphires and 17-12=5 rubies.

seropon [69]

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = –(x + 6)(x + 2)

The function is increasing until it reaches the vertex, so it will increase until x=-4.  The function will decrease after the vertex, so after x = -4

increasing: -∞ < x < -4

decreasing : -4 < x < ∞
