The answer is a i think but if u get it wrong im sorry
You use the FOIL method, and how you do this is -
(x - 7) (x + 8)
Multiply the first x by both numbers in the second factor. Which means, you multiply x by x and 8, the two in (x + 8).
With this, you get -
x^2 + 8x
Then do the same thing with -7.
-7x - 56
Then combine the two.
x^2 + 8x - 7x - 56
Combine like terms.
x^2 + x - 56
So now, 7 x 8 is 56
And -7 + 8 would be 1. And that is the value of “x” which is b in the form a^2x + bx + c.
Now with this, you take those two numbers and make the factors =
(x + 8) (x - 7)
Then you set these equal to 0.
x + 8 = 0
Subtract the 8 from both sides.
x = -8
————
x - 7 = 0
Add the 7 on both sides.
x = 7
Answer: A
Well you haven't really given us a question that requires a "quantifiable" answer. 2 ounces is roughly equivalent to 60 grams. 2 ounces of ketchup wouldn't be an awful lot of ketchup. I'm sure that you'd remain healthy despite eating 2 ounces of ketchup along with your potato wedges.
According to the American Heart Association, women should only have about 25 grams of sugar per day. In 100g of ketchup there would be about 22g grams of sugar. If you were to eat roughly 60g of ketchup, you'd only be digesting about 13.2 grams of sugar. Now, potato wedges could also contain sugar, but you haven't stated how many grams or kilograms of potato wedges you'd be eating, so I wouldn't be able to tell you whether your meal contains too much sugar.
