Answer: x = 0 or x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, we must note that the two equations speaks of a single function of y. So

y = 2x - 3 = x² - 3

So from.here we can equate the two together and solve for x.

x² - 3 = 2x - 3, biw convert to a quadratic expression

x² - 2x - 3 + 3 = 0

x² - 2x = 0

Now factorize

x( x - 2 ) = 0, so solving for x

x = 0 or x = 2. .I believed getting the 2 won't be a problem

When x - 2 = 0

Then x = 2.

A restaurant chef bought potatoes at four different stores. The table shows the amount of the potatoes she bought at each store

hichkok12 [17]

Answer:

The way to answer this question is to find out the price per pound potato by dividing the amount the restaurant chief paid by the number of pounds bought.

Your question lacks details on the pounds bought in the other stores so I will assume these figures and you can use it as a reference.

Restaurant B - 2 pounds

Restaurant C - 12 pounds

Restaurant D - 5 pounds

Price per pound

Restaurant A = 6.60/8

= $0.83

Restaurant B = 3.50/2

= $1.75

Restaurant C = 9.75/12

= $0.82

Restaurant D = 4.80/8

= $0.96

Restaurant C has the lowest price per pound for potatoes.

butalik [34]

Answer:

2nd debate was 3 hours long.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that during the mayoral election,two debates were held between the candidates. The first debate lasted 1 2/3 hours. The second one was 1 4/5 times as long as the first one.

Let us find the estimate of time spent on 2nd debate.

1 2/3 hours would be approximately 2 hours. 1 4/5 times would be equal to 2 times.

$2*2=4$
