Answer:

Each of them eat 140 scoops.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the amount eaten by each of them,

Given,

The initial ice cream Masha has =  200 scoops

Final ice cream Masha has = ( 200 - x ) scoops

while the initial ice cream Liz has = 180 scoops,

Final ice cream Liz has = (180-x) scoops,

According to the question,

\frac{200-x}{180-x}=\frac{3}{2}

400-2x=540-3x ( by cross multiplication )

-2x=140-3x       ( Subtracting 400 on both sides )

x=140  ( adding 3x on both sides )

Hence, each of them eat 140 scoops.

I have already tryed but how in the world do i solve 2
trapecia [35]
Alright, let's factor this to get the answer.
3k^2-10k+7
To find the factors, we want to think "What will add up to -10, and multiply to (+)7?"
Because the leading coefficient is 3, we know that we can take one factor of 7 and multiply it by 3.
Thus, this factors to
(3k-7)(k-1)
(if you FOIL it it should come out to be the original equation)

From this, set both of those [(3k-7) and (k-1)] equal to zero and solve
3k-7=0
3k=7
/3
k=7/3
or
k=1
