How do I solve this equation n^2=18n+40.

3 0

Answer:

n = 20 or n = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for n over the real numbers:

n^2 = 18 n + 40

Subtract 18 n + 40 from both sides:

n^2 - 18 n - 40 = 0

The left hand side factors into a product with two terms:

(n - 20) (n + 2) = 0

Split into two equations:

n - 20 = 0 or n + 2 = 0

Add 20 to both sides:

n = 20 or n + 2 = 0

Subtract 2 from both sides:

Answer:  n = 20 or n = -2

a caterer received an order to prepare 120 servings of salad for a banquet. Each serving will weigh 4 ounces. so far the caterer
Ugo [173]
To easier digest this question, we can multiply the 120 servings by 4 ounces to make it into a common unit of measurement. This way, we can compare ounces with ounces instead of ounces to servings.
We then have 480 servings, and the poor caterer only has 60 ounces. We can put that into a fraction, 60/480. From here, things get slightly easier. All we have to do is make it into a fraction we can digest, which would be 1/8. We can turn that fraction into a decimal by simply dividing. We have 0.125.
Since we are changing from a decimal into a percent, we have to move the decimal point two places to the right. We have out final answer of 12.5%.
