Answer:
x=7, x= -2
Step-by-step explanation:
- Start by putting the whole equation to one side: x2-5x=14 ----> x2-5x-14=0
- Next, factor the equation: x,x -7,2 ----> (x-7)(x+2)=0
- Now, solve both equations: x-7=0....x=7 AND x+2=0.....x= -2
- Plug both in to make sure that they are correct....both are correct
6 years
A parent increases a child’s monthly allowance by 20% each year. If the allowance is $8 per month now. This is an exponential function, An exponential function is given by:
Let x be the number of years and y be the allowance. The initial allowance is $8, this means at x = 0, y = 8
Since it increases by 20% each year, i.e 100% + 20% = 1 + 0.2 = 1.2. This means that b = 1.2
Therefore:
To find the number of years will it take to reach $20 per month, we substitute y = 20 and find x
x = 6 years to the nearest year
Replace x with the x value solve to get the y value.

Answer:
D -13
Step-by-step explanation:
5x - 3y - z if x = -2, y = 2, and z = -3
5x - 3y - z =
= 5(-2) - 3(2) - (-3)
= -10 - 6 + 3
= -16 + 3
= -13
