Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

17 = -13 - 8x....add 13 to both sides

17 + 13 = -13 + 13 - 8x

30 = -8x...now divide both sides by -8

-30/8 = (-8/-8)x

-30/8 = x.....reduce

- 15/4 = x <===

1. A breakfast cereal is made of oats, nuts, and raisins. The advertisements boast that 25% of the cereal in each box is almonds

kotykmax [81]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1) The advertisements boast that 25% of the cereal in each box is almonds. It means that the percentage of the other cereals in the box is 100 - 25= 75%

Therefore, the portion of each box that is not almonds is 75/100 = 0.75

2) The advertisements boast that 25% of the cereal in each box is almonds. If each box contains 12 cups of cereal, then the number of cups of almonds in each box is

25/100 × 12 = 3 cups

3) if each box contains 12 cups of cereal, and 4 cups are oats, then the percentage of each box that is oats is

4/12 × 100 = 33.33%

If using the method of completing the square to solve the quadratic equation x^2-4x+10=0,which number would have to be added to

chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x² - 4x + 10 = 0

subtract 10 from both sides

x² - 4x = - 10

To complete the square

add ( half the coefficient of the x- term )² to both sides

x² + 2(- 2)x + 4 = - 10 + 4

(x - 2)² = - 6

To complete the square add 4
