Assuming that the inequality you were going for was a ≤, set both polynomials less than or equal to 0.
x - 3 ≤ 0
x + 5 ≤ 0
For the first equation add 3 to both sides of the inequality. For the second, subtract 5 from both sides.
x ≤ 3
x ≤ - 5
These would be your solutions I guess, however, if you want to expand upon that, your actual answer is (- ∞, - 5] because if you were to plot these two inequalities on a number line, that is where the overlap would occur.

Answer:
80000 square meters
Step-by-step explanation:
perimeter + dividing fence = 800
let a = length
let b = width
let c = length of dividing fence
perimeter = 2*a + 2*b
let's say...
c is the same as the length
2a + 2b + c = 800
2a + 2b + a = 800
3a + 2b = 800
area = length*width
area = a*b
area / b = a
3*(area/b) + 2b = 800
3*(area/b) = 800 - 2b
area/b = (800 - 2b)
area = (800 - 2b)*b
To make the area large, we make the right hand side large.
800b - 2b^2
If you put in terms of x, y it looks like a downward opening parabola, so the max area is at the vertex. Half way between the roots.
y = -2x^2 + 800x
y = -x^2 + 400x
0 = x*(-x + 400)
roots are x= 0 and x = 400
vertex is at x, aka b = 200
area at b=200 is (800 - 400)*200 = 80000
and a is area/b... 80000/400 = 200
Answer:
Scale Factor = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
ABC is your original triangle and A'B'C' is the dilation. You know these are similar triangles so only one side has to be used to find the scale factor. AB has a length of 3 and A'B' has a length of 6 so you know the side lengths of A'B'C' are going to be 2 times the size of triangle ABC side lengths. This gives you a scale factor of 2.
