For this case, we find the amount of each colored candy in the bag, having a total of 55.

  • Reds:

55 -------------> 100%

R ---------------> 20%

Where "R" represents the amount of red candies.

R = \frac {20 * 55} {100}\\R = 11

  • Oranges:

O = \frac {30 * 55} {100}

O = 16.5, approximately 16 orange candies.

  • Green:

G = \frac {30 * 55} {100}

G = 16.5, approximately 16 green candies.

  • Blues:

B = \frac {20 * 55} {100}\\B = 11

Now, having a total of 11 blue candies, we must find 20% to know how many have the damaged candy coating.

11 ---------------> 100%

x -----------------> 20%

Where "x" represents the quantity of blue candies with the damaged candy coating

x = \frac {20 * 11} {100}\\x = 2.2

So, of 2 blue candies have the damaged candy coating

two

Factor completely <br> 4x^2 + 24x - 64
lara31 [8.8K]
First see you can factor out 4. What is left is x^2 + 6x - 16.
That can be factored as (x+8)(x-2) so the total factorization is

4(x+8)(x-2)

On Sunday, a local hamburger shop sold a combined total of 428 hamburgers and cheeseburgers. The number of cheese burgers sold w
melisa1 [442]
The equation you can use is x + 3x = 428 with x as the number of cheeseburgers and 3x the number of hamburgers 
you solve for x and get 4x= 428 and x=107

so 321 hamburgers were sold that day.
