<h2>Answer:</h2>

The batch of guacamole is: 6.25.

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

It is given that:

A recipe for guacamole uses 12% lime juice.

This means that:

A recipe for guacamole uses 0.12 lime juice.

This means that:

1 cup of lime juice= 1/0.12 guacamole.

Also,

a batch contains 0.75 cup of lime juice.

This means that:

   0.75 cups of lime juice=0.75/0.12 guacamole.

i.e.

   0.75 cups of lime juice=6.25 guacamole.

Hence, one batch = 6.25 guacamole.

For what value of c does x^2−2x−c=4 have exactly one real solution?<br> PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!
Paul [167]

Answer:

-5

Step-by-step explanation:

Moving all terms of the quadratic to one side, we have

x^2-2x-(c+4)=0.

A quadratic has one real solution when the discriminant is equal to 0. In a quadratic ax^2+bx+d, the discriminant is \sqrt{b^2-4ad}.

(The discriminant is more commonly known as \sqrt{b^2-4ac}, but I changed the variable since we already have a c in the quadratic given.)

In the quadratic above, we have a=1, b=-2, and d=-(c+4). Plugging this into the formula for the discriminant, we have

\sqrt{(-2)^2-4(1)(-(c+4)).

Using the distributive property to expand and simplifying, the expression becomes

\sqrt{4-4(-c-4)}=\sqrt{4+4c+16}\\~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~=\sqrt{20+4c}\\~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~=\sqrt{4}\cdot\sqrt{5+c}\\~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~=2\sqrt{c+5}.

Setting the discriminant equal to 0 gives

2\sqrt{c+5}=0.

We can then solve the equation as usual: first, divide by 2 on both sides:

\sqrt{c+5}=0.

Squaring both sides gives

c+5=0,

and subtracting 5 from both sides, we have

\boxed{c=-5}.

Solve for X<br> 3(x + 7) &lt; 7(x + 2)
Furkat [3]

Answer:

x > 7/4

Step-by-step explanation:

3(x + 7) < 7(x + 2)

Expand brackets:                 3x + 21 < 7x + 14

Subtract 14 from both sides:  3x +7 < 7x

Subtract 3x from both sides:         7 < 4x

Divide both sides by 4:              7/4 < x

Therefore x > 7/4
