Answer:
The equation is (2+x) / 4 = 3
Total amount of chopped vegetables = 10 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
Meat=2 pounds
Vegetables=x
Mixture= 2+x
She divides the mixture into 4 equal portions
(2+x)/4
Each portion weighs 3 pounds
(2+x)/4=3
Solve the equation
(2+x)/4=3
Cross product
(2+x) = 4 × 3
2+x=12
x=12-2
=10
x=10 pounds
Total amount of chopped vegetables = 10 pounds

Answer:
The flower garden width would be 6 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
A = 12 ft^2 = x(x + 4) becomes:
x^2 + 4x - 12 = 0, or (by completing the square) x^2 + 4x + 4 - 4 - 12 = 0
Thus, we have (x + 2)^2 - 16 = 0, or (x + 2)^2 = 16
Taking the square root of both sides yields x + 2 = ±4.
In this context only a positive x value makes sense: x = 2 + 4 => x = 6.
The flower garden width would be 6 ft. The other dimension would be 6 - 4, or 2, ft.
