Answer:
x = - 2 or x = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the x- intercepts let f(x) = 0, that is
(x - 4)(x + 2) = 0
Equate each factor to zero and solve for x
x - 4 = 0 ⇒ x = 4
x + 2 = 0 ⇒ x = - 2
The x- intercepts are at x = - 2, x = 4
This is a system of equations problem.
Blueberry = X, blackberry = Y
Joe:
5x + 10y = 135
James:
x + 9y = 104
Let’s isolate x from James’ equation.
x = 104 - 9y
Now substitute that into the first equation.
5(104 - 9y) + 10y = 135
520 - 45y + 10y = 135
-35y = -385
y = -385/-35. The negatives cancel out, leaving us with $11 for blackberries.
Now we can substitute that value into James’s equation.
x + 9(11) = 104
x = 104 - 99
x = $5
Final answer: Blueberry pies cost $5, blackberry pies cost $11.
Answer:
70 and 110
Step-by-step explanation:
First angle -- 2x
Second angle -- 3x + 5
Therefore,
2x + 3x + 5 = 180
5x = 175
x = 35
Therefore, 2x -- 70
3x + 5 -------------110
Thenks and mark me brainliest :)
