Answer:
x = -
, x = 
Step-by-step explanation:
to find the points of intersection equate the 2 equations , that is
7x - 15 = 10 + 12x - 6x² ( subtract 10 + 12x - 6x² from both sides )
6x² - 5x - 25 = 0 ← factor the quadratic on left side
consider the factors of the product of the coefficient of the x² term and the constant term which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term
product = 6 × - 25 = - 150 and sum = - 5
the factors are - 15 and + 10
use these factors to split the x- term
6x² - 15x + 10x - 25 = 0 ( factor the first/second and third/fourth terms )
3x(2x - 5) + 5(2x - 5) = 0 ← factor out (2x - 5) from each term
(2x - 5)(3x + 5) = 0
equate each factor to zero and solve for x
3x + 5 = 0 ⇒ 3x = - 5 ⇒ x = - 
2x - 5 = 0 ⇒ 2x = 5 ⇒ x = 
I don't know how to explain but the answer is 2.4.
X/58.65 = 15/100
(58.65*15)/100 = tip
I might not be right but a is 2 and b is 16
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us assume that total amount of Nathan's allowance = x
Amount of money deposited by Nathan into his savings account = 7x/9
Remaining amount that Nathan spent = $2.50
Now we have to get to the equation for solving the question asked.
7x/9 + 2.50 = x
7x + (9 * 2.50) = 9x
7x + 22.50 = 9x
22.50 = 9x - 7x
22.50 =2x
x = 22.50/2
= 11.25
So $11.25 is the total allowance of Nathan.
Then The amount of money deposited by
Nathan in savings account = (7/9) * 11.25
= 78.75/9
= 8.75
So Nathan deposits $8.75 in his savings account.
