96=(x+8)*x*(x-2)=x^3 +6x^2 -16x. Solve to get x= -6,-4,4. Negative distance doesn't make sense, so x=+4. Therefore, length is (x+8)=(4+8)= 12, width=x=4, and height=(x-2)=(4-2)=2.

Step-by-step explanation:
Given
---x = 0, in 2012
-- x = 5, in 2017
Required
Select all possible equations
Because there is a reduction in the population, as time increases; the rate must be less than 1.
An exponential function is represented as:

Where

rate > 1 in options (a) and (b) i.e. 1.03
This implies that (a) and (b) cannot be true
For option (c), we have:

Set x = 0

Set x = 5

<em>This is true because the calculated values of f(0) and f(5) correspond to the given values</em>
For option (d), we have:

Set x = 0

<em>This is false because the calculated value of f(0) does not correspond to the given value</em>
For option (e), we have:

Set x = 0
undefined
<em>This is false because the f(x) is not undefined at x = 0</em>
For option (f), we have:

Set x = 0

<em>This is false because the calculated value of f(0) does not correspond to the given value</em>
<em>From the computations above, only (c) </em>
<em> is true</em>
Simple Pythagorean theorem, And if you double check Tamara's work she is correct. Therefor B is the correct answer.
Substitution is where we first Isolate one of the unknowns, express it in terms of the other unknown, and replace the isolated unknown with the other unknown in another equation. So that each time we only need to deal with one unknown. I think you'll get a better idea here:
First name these 2 equations with 1 and 2.
4x + 5y = 7 (1)
y = 3x + 9 (2)
Since y is already isolated in (2), so we can skip the isolation step and continue to substitute.
Substitute (2) into (1).
4x + 5(3x+9) = 7
Expand.
4x + 15x + 45 = 7
Group.
19x + 45 = 7
Shift +45 to the other side and turn it into -45.
19x = 7 - 45
19x = -38
Shift x19 to the other side, turn it into /19.
X = - 38/19
X = - 2
Now we solved x already, we can just substitute x= - 2 back to equation (2).
y = 3(-2) + 9
y = - 6 + 9
y = 3
So, the answers are
x = - 2
y = 3
