Split the second term in 3a^2 - 8a + 4 into two terms
3a^2 - 2a - 6a + 4 = 0
Factor out common terms in the first two terms, then in the last two terms.
a(3a - 2) -2(3a - 2) = 0
Factor out the common term 3a - 2
(3a - 2)(a - 2) = 0
Solve for a;
a = 2/3,2
<u>Answer : B. (2/3,2)</u>
Conversion from gallons to quarts
1 gallon = 4 quarts
Now,
Angela has

gallons =

= 10 quarts of blue paint
Ryou has 1/2 of what Angela has = 1/2*10 = 5 quarts of white paint.
Each wall requires

of paint.
After coloring;
Blue colored walls = (10)/(

) = 3 walls with 7/11 quarts of paint remaining.
White colored walls = (5)/(

) = 1 wall with 9/11 quarts of paint remaining
There are a number of different problems that you could do that will give you an outcome of 9/10
For example, 1/2 and 2/5 add up to 9/10.
3/10 and 6/10 also add up to 9/10.
Find the sum of 7/10 and 1/5
Find the sum of 7/20 and 11/20
Find the sum of 1/2 and 3/10 and 1/10
Find the sum of 1/5 and 2/5 and 3/10
Hope this helps :)
That's for the equation I got from the picture
