Use u subsitution the solve by grouping
u=x^2
u^3-16u=4u^2-64
u^3-4u^2-16u+64=0
(u^3-4u^2)+(-16u+64)=0
u^2(u-4)+(-16)(u-4)=0
(u^2-16)(u-4)=0
(u-4)(u+4)(u-4)=0
(u+4)(u-4)^2=0
u=x^2
(x^2+4)(x^2-4)^2=0
(x^2+4)((x-2)(x+2))^2=0
(x^2+4)(x-2)²(x+2)²=0
set to zero
x^2+4=0
x^2=-4
x=+/-2i
x-2=0
x=2
x+2=0
x=-2
the other roots are -2 and 2

Figure the fraction of box tops each class collected, then multiply the prize money by that fraction.
Total box tops = 3760 +2301 +1855 = 7916
Mr Coronado's class's fraction: 3760/7916 × $600 = $284.99
Mrs De Souza's class's fraction: 2301/7916 × $600 = $174.41
Mr Nost's class's fraction: 1855/7916 × $600 = $140.60
Q 1. option A......
Q 2. option B....
You don't need 3 equations to get a general solution. To do this use the equations x-3y-z=0 and -x+2y+0z= -3. Start out by letting z = t. Then solving those 2 equations simultaneously, your x's cancel out leaving you with -y-z=-3. But since z=t, then -y=-3+t or y=3-t. Now sub that in for y in the first equation, along with the fact that z=t to get x-3(3-t)-t = 0 and solve for x. x=9-2t. So a general solution for this would be (9-2t, 3-t, t)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
A parallelogram is a quadrilateral with two pairs of parallel sides. Opposite sides of a parallelogram are equal.
Therefore, set any two opposite sides equal to each other to solve for
