Could someone explain to me clearly how to work this out using quadratics?
find the values of a, b, c, d and e that make this following equation true.
4(x-2)(x+3)+3 = ax+b+c+dx+e

let x be the money she spent so that she can earn the free t-shirt.

since, she already spent $112.49

⇒

also, as per the statement: jennifer must spend $250 or more in order to qualify for a free t-shirt at the store.

then,

we have an inequality i.,e

subtract 112.49 from both sides we get;

therefore, $137. 51 more money does jennifer need to spend so that she can earn the free t-shirt

answer4 to the second power is 16

and 4 to the third power is 64,
