<h2>Hey there!</h2>

<h3>The expression which is equivalent to - 6x + 7.5 is option (A) - 3(2x - 2.5).</h3>

<h3>☆Explanation:</h3>

- 6x + 7.5

If you we split this equation then we'll get -3(2x-2.5).

Because,

- 3 × 2x gives -6x
(-3) × - 2.5 gives + 7.5

<h2>Hope it helps </h2>

Suppose you're making a soup that uses 5 cups of chicken broth and 3⁄4 teaspoons of corn starch for 8 servings. You need to make

yanalaym [24]

Answer:

Option A = 7.5 cups

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Suppose you're making a soup that uses 5 cups of chicken broth and $\frac{3}{4}$ teaspoons of corn starch for 8 servings. You need to make 12 servings of the soup, so you'll need $1\frac{1}{8}$ teaspoons of corn starch.

To find : How much broth do you need?

Solution :

A soup that uses 5 cups of chicken broth and $\frac{3}{4}$ teaspoons of corn starch for 8 servings.

i.e. 5 cups + $\frac{3}{4}$ teaspoon = 8 servings ......(1)

You need to make 12 servings of the soup, so you'll need $1\frac{1}{8}=\frac{9}{8}$

i.e. x cups + $\frac{9}{8}$ teaspoon = 12 servings ........(2)

So, First we find the ratio

Ratio is $\frac{12}{8}=\frac{3}{2}$

So to equal the ratio multiply (1) by $\frac{3}{2}$

$5\times \frac{3}{2}$ cups + $\frac{3}{4}\times \frac{3}{2}$ teaspoon = $8\times \frac{3}{2}$ servings

$\frac{15}{2}$ cups + $\frac{9}{8}$ teaspoon = 12 servings

On comparing with (2),

The value of x is $\frac{15}{2}$ .

Therefore, The broth do we need is $\frac{15}{2}=7.5$ cups.

So, Option A is correct.

How do I find the Axis of Symmetry for a parabola

soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

Explanation given below.

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step is to put the parabola in the form $ax^2+bx+c$ , which is the <em>standard form of a parabola</em>

<em />

<u>Note:</u> a is the coefficient before x^2 term, b is the coefficient before x term, and c is the independent constant term

The axis of symmetry divides the parabola symmetrically. The axis of symmetry has the equation $x=-\frac{b}{2a}$

Where <em><u>a and b are the respective values shown above</u></em>

<em><u /></em>

So, that is how you get the axis of symmetry of any parabola.
