Suppose one of the roots is a the second is 2a. The factors will be:
(x-a) and (x-2a)
thus
(x-a)(x-2a)=x^2+6x+q
x^2-xa-2ax+2a^2=x^2+6x+q
taking corresponding terms we shall have:
-2ax=6x
solving for a we get
-2a=6
thus
a=-3
but
q=2a^2
substituting the value of a we get:
q=2(-3)^2
q=2*9
q=18

Which is a unit rate?
yulyashka [42]

Answer:

3 cookies/bag

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, let's define a unit rate. A unit rate is a ratio of the amount of one measurement to one unit of another measurement term. Unit rates can be expressed as fractions.

Now, here is something easier for you to remember: <u>the second unit always have to be something with the quantity of 1</u>.

In this case, "3 cookies/bag" shows how there are three cookies per, or in each bag--which means 1 bag. The second unit, which is bag, has the quantity of one.
