Answer:
x=-4
x=4
Step-by-step explanation:
We can factor x^2 -16 = 0 by recognizing that it is a difference of squares. That means we can factor the equation to (x-4)(x+4) = 0. By using the Zero Product Property we know that either (x-4) or (x+4) is equal to 0. That means that x either equals -4 or 4.
A. He eats 1/8 a pound of candy each day.
B. It would take him a total of 8 days to eat a pound of candy.
A. Since he ate 10 ounces in 5 days, you divide 10 by 5 to find he ate 2 ounces per day. Since there are 16 ounces in a pound that would be your denominator (bottom of fraction) and 2 would be the numerator (top of your fraction). You will get 2/16 which if you simplify (divide by 2) you get 1/8.
B. Knowing that there are 16 ounces per pound and he ate 1/8 pound ( 2/16 pound or 2 ounces) a day, you can either look at the simplified denominator to get the answer, or, divide 16 by 2 to get your answer.
