Answer:
(a) 
(b) 
Step-by-step explanation:
(a)
can also be written as
x 
the
= ± y
Therefore :
= ±
since it was given that y < 0 , then the factor will be 
(b)
can also be written as :
x 
Therefore , one of the factor is 
-4/5 is the skip of the graph
There are many pairs that are solutions to this inequality. You can find them all by graphic this on a coordinate plane and then shading the region.
You can also plug any of the ordered pairs that they give you into the equation and see if they produce a true statement.
1 cleaning crew = 5 offices in 6 hours
You want to find out the number of offices they can clean in 12 hours
6 (hours) is

of 12 (hours)
The opposite of

is 2
6 (hours) multiplied by 2 (opposite of

) is equal to
12
6 x 2 = 12, 12 = the number of offices you're trying to find.
Therefore, you need to multiple 5 by 2 (number that is double), so
5 x 2 = 10
The crew can clean 10 offices in 12 hours
