X² + 2x = 24 

Organizing:
x² + 2x - 24 = 0  
<<<< (<em>Quadratic </em><span><span><em>equation</em>)
</span>
</span><span>Delta:
</span>Δ = b²<span> - 4.a.c </span>
Δ = 2²<span> - 4 * 1 * -24 </span>
<span>Δ = 4 - 4 * 1 * -24 </span>
Δ = 100

<span>Bhaskara:
</span><span>x = (-b +- √Δ)/2*a
</span>
x' = (-2 + √100)/2*1   
x' = 8 / 2   
x' = 4   

x'' = (-2 - √100)/2*1
x'' = -12 / 2
x'' = -6

Result: x = 4 or<span> x = - 6 .

X²+2x=24
Subtract 24 to each side
x²+2x-24=24-24
x²+2x-24=0
Factor thus with
ax²+mx+nx+b
0=x²+6x-4x-24
0=x(x+6)-4(x+6)
0=(x-4)(x+6)
x-4=0
Add 4 to each side
x-4+4=0+4
x=4

x+6=0
Subtract 6 to each side
x+6-6=0-6
x=-6. As a result, x could equal to 4 and -6. Hope it help!

Clare has a recipe for yellow cake. She uses 913 cups of flour to make 4 cakes. Noah will follow the same recipe. He will make c
sergejj [24]

Answer:

(C)c= \frac{3}{7}f

Step-by-step explanation:

Clare uses 9\frac{1}{3} cups of flour to make 4 cakes.

It means  she uses 1 cup of flour to make 4\div9\frac{1}{3} cakes.

Let us simplify that expression first for future use.

4\div9\frac{1}{3}=4\div\frac{28}{3} =4 X \frac{3}{28} =\frac{3}{7}

Therefore, Clare uses 1 cup of flour to make \frac{3}{7} cakes.

If Noah follows the same recipe,

He uses f cups of flour to make c cakes

Using Ratio Method

→  Name  :  Cup  :  Cake

→  Clare   :    1        :   \frac{3}{7}

→  Noah   :     f       :   c

By using cross multiplication

c X 1 = \frac{3}{7}f

c= \frac{3}{7}f

The equation c= \frac{3}{7}f represents the relationship between c and f

Silvia buys 12 steaks that are each 34 of a pound. She spends a total of $90 on steaks. Complete each sentence. Silvia buys a to
scZoUnD [109]
I think in the first sentence, that should have been 3/4 instead of 34. Total amount of steak bought (lb)
                                        total amount = (3/4 lb/steak)(12 steak) = 9 lb
To find the total amount that Silvia spends for each pound of steak, we divide $90 by 9 and that will give us an answer of $10.
