Ineed a step by step explanation how to solve for the solutions of this (not by graphing)
y=({x}^2)-8x+15 and y=3x+15 (once again plz solve using a method other than graphing and add an explanation)

(0, 15) and (11, 48)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

y = x² - 8x + 15 → (1)

y = 3x + 15 → (2)

Substitute y = x² - 8x + 15 into (2)

x² - 8x + 15 = 3x + 15 ( subtract 3x + 15 from both sides )

x² - 11x = 0 ← in standard form

x(x - 11) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x = 0

x - 11 = 0 ⇒ x = 11

Substitute these values into (2) for corresponding values of y

x = 0 : y = 0 + 15 = 15 ⇒ (0, 15)

x = 11 : y = 33 + 15 = 48 ⇒ (11, 48)

Solutions are (0, 15), (11, 48)

$9.89

step-by-step explanation:

9.90 = p x .06 x .25 (3/12 changed to a decimal)

9.90 = p x 0.015

9.90 - 0.015 = p

9.89 = p

the correct option is:

b. a value of the variable that makes the polynomial equal to zero.

the root or roots of a polynomial are the values of the variable that makes the polynomial equal to 0. we can find the roots of a polynomial making the expression equal to 0 and then, isolating the variable (it it has just one variable).

for example, given the following polynomial:

the root or zero of the polynomial, can be found by making the expression equal to 0, and then, isolating the variable, so, finding the root we have:

therefore, we have that the root of the polynomial is equal to 2.

we must remember that the number of roots that a polynomial can have, will depend on the degree of the polynomial, a first degree polynomial have will have one single root, a second degree polynomial (quadratic expression) may have two roots and so.

hence the correct option is:

b. a value of the variable that makes the polynomial equal to zero.

have a nice day!
