Jeff is baking a cake. The recipe says that he has to mix 32 grams of vanilla powder to the flour. Jeff knows that 1 cup of that

particular vanilla powder has a mass of 128 grams. He added two over three of a cup of vanilla powder to the flour. Should Jeff add more vanilla powder to make the exact recipe, or did he go over and by what amount?

1 / 128 = (2/3) / x....1 cup to 128 grams = 2/3 cups to x grams
cross multiply
(1)(x) = (128)(2/3)
x = 256/3
x = 85.3

he went over...
85.3 - 32 = 53.3....he went over by 53.3 (or 53 1/3) grams

$\underline{\bf{Given \:equation:-}}$

$\\ \sf{:}\dashrightarrow ax^2+by+c=0$

$\sf Let\:roots\;of\:the\: equation\:be\:\alpha\:and\beta.$

$\sf We\:know,$

$\boxed{\sf sum\:of\:roots=\alpha+\beta=\dfrac{-b}{a}}$

$\boxed{\sf Product\:of\:roots=\alpha\beta=\dfrac{c}{a}}$

$\underline{\large{\bf Identities\:used:-}}$

$\boxed{\sf (a+b)^2=a^2+2ab+b^2}$

$\boxed{\sf (√a)^2=a}$

$\boxed{\sf \sqrt{a}\sqrt{b}=\sqrt{ab}}$

$\boxed{\sf \sqrt{\sqrt{a}}=a}$

$\underline{\bf Final\: Solution:-}$

$\\ \sf{:}\dashrightarrow \sqrt{\alpha}+\sqrt{\beta}$

$\bull\sf Apply\: Squares$

$\\ \sf{:}\dashrightarrow (\sqrt{\alpha}+\sqrt{\beta})^2= (\sqrt{\alpha})^2+2\sqrt{\alpha}\sqrt{\beta}+(\sqrt{\beta})^2$

$\\ \sf{:}\dashrightarrow (\sqrt{\alpha}+\sqrt{\beta})^2 \alpha+\beta+2\sqrt{\alpha\beta}$

$\bull\sf Put\:values$

$\\ \sf{:}\dashrightarrow (\sqrt{\alpha}+\sqrt{\beta})^2=\dfrac{-b}{a}+2\sqrt{\dfrac{c}{a}}$

$\\ \sf{:}\dashrightarrow \sqrt{\alpha}+\sqrt{\beta}=\sqrt{\dfrac{-b}{a}+2\sqrt{\dfrac{c}{a}}}$

$\bull\sf Simplify$

$\\ \sf{:}\dashrightarrow \underline{\boxed{\bf {\sqrt{\boldsymbol{\alpha}}+\sqrt{\boldsymbol{\beta}}=\sqrt{\dfrac{-b}{a}}+\sqrt{2}\dfrac{c}{a}}}}$

$\underline{\bf More\: simplification:-}$

$\\ \sf{:}\dashrightarrow \sqrt{\alpha}+\sqrt{\beta}=\dfrac{\sqrt{-b}}{\sqrt{a}}+\dfrac{c\sqrt{2}}{a}$

$\\ \sf{:}\dashrightarrow \sqrt{\alpha}+\sqrt{\beta}=\dfrac{\sqrt{a}\sqrt{-b}+c\sqrt{2}}{a}$

$\underline{\Large{\bf Simplified\: Answer:-}}$

$\\ \sf{:}\dashrightarrow\underline{\boxed{\bf{ \sqrt{\boldsymbol{\alpha}}+\sqrt{\boldsymbol{\beta}}=\dfrac{\sqrt{-ab}+c\sqrt{2}}{a}}}}$
