<h3>Answer: Choice C</h3>
{x | x < -12 or x > -6}
=========================================================
Explanation:
Let's solve the first inequality for x.
(-2/3)x > 8
-2x > 8*3
-2x > 24
x < 24/(-2)
x < -12
The inequality sign flips when we divide both sides by a negative value.
Let's do the same for the second inequality.
(-2/3)x < 4
-2x < 4*3
-2x < 12
x > 12/(-2)
x > -6
The conclusion of each section is that x < -12 or x > -6 which points us to <u>choice C</u> as the final answer.
Side note: The intervals x < -12 and x > -6 do not overlap in any way. There's a gap between the two pieces. We consider these intervals to be disjoint. The number line graph is below.

Answer:
y = -3x^2 -9x +30
Step-by-step explanation:
When a polynomial has a zero at x=p, it has a factor of (x -p). The factors of your quadratic are ...
f(x) = (x +5)(x -2)
At the point x=3, the value of this product is ...
f(3) = (3 +5)(3 -2) = (8)(1) = 8
In order for that value to be -24, it needs to be multiplied by a scale factor of -3. The quadratic you want is ...
y = -3(x +5)(x -2)
y = -3x^2 -9x +30 . . . . . standard form
