32 students choose a favorite topping for their slices.
Let x be the total number of students.
1/2 of the total students, or 1/2x, choose pepperoni.
1/4 of the total students, or 1/4x, choose extra cheese.
1/8 of the total students, or 1/8x, choose sausage.
4 students choose mushrooms.
We know that together, these equal the total number of students, x:
1/2x+1/4x+1/8x+4=x
We will use 8 as the common denominator:
4/8x+2/8x+1/8x+4=x
Combining like terms:
7/8x+4=x
Subtract 7/8x from both sides:
7/8x+4-7/8x=x-7/8x
4=1x-7/8x
4=1/8x
Divide both sides by 1/8:
4÷(1/8) = 1/8x÷(1/8)
4/1÷(1/8) = x
4/1×8/1 = x
32/1 = x
32 = x

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
-7/2 = -2(x-1/2)^2
Step-by-step explanation:
0 = –2x^2 + 2x + 3
Subtract 3 from each side
-3 = –2x^2 + 2x
Factor out the -2
-3 =- 2(x^2 -x)
Take the coefficient of x and divide by 2 and square it
-1 /2 = -1/2 ^2 = 1/4
Add it to each side Remember the -2 on the outside so we need to multiply it by -2
-2 *1/4 = -1/2
-3 -1/2= -2(x^2 -x +1/4)
-7/2 = -2(x^2 -x +1/4)
-7/2 = -2(x-1/2)^2
