Standard form: ax^2 + bx + c = y
Steps to simplify:
2x^2 - 1 = 3x + 4
~Subtract (3x + 4) to both sides
2x^2 - 1 - 3x + 4 = 3x + 4 - 3x + 4
~Simplify
2x^2 - 3x - 5 = 0
(a = 2, b = -3, c = -5)
Now that we know what these values are, we can use the quadratic formula to solve.
Answer: x = 5/2 or x = -1
Best of Luck!
The sail price would be 38.25 because the original price is 45 and the discount is 15% and that would be 0.15 you need to multiply 45 with 0.15 and that would 38.25
Answer:
Donuts(b) = 12*b
Step-by-step explanation:
Notice that the question is:
What's an expression to model the number of donuts in b boxes?
We know that we are talking of boxes of a dozen donuts.
We know that in one dozen, we have 12 donuts.
Then if we have b boxes, and in each box we have 12 donuts, we will have a total of b times 12 donuts, the expression is:
Donuts(b) = 12*b
There is a lot of information here that we did not use (like the cost of cardboard and donuts), and that may be there just to distract us, the important thing to do here is:
See what is the thing we want to find (in this case, the number of donuts in b boxes)
Find the relevant information to solve this. (ignore the irrelevant information)
Solve the question.
