Answer:

$x=-5\text{ or }x=2$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given an equation $x^2+3x-10=0$ . We are asked to find the solutions of our given equation.

We will use splitting the middle term method to solve quadratic equation.

We will split middle term of our given equation into parts such that whose product is $-10$ and whose sum is 3.

We know that such two numbers are $5\text{ and }-2$ .

$x^2+5x-2x-10=0$

$(x^2+5x)+(-2x-10)=0$

$x(x+5)-2(x+5)=0$

$(x+5)(x-2)=0$

Using zero product property, we will get:

$(x+5)=0\text{ or }(x-2)=0$

$x+5=0\text{ or }x-2=0$

$x=-5\text{ or }x=2$

Therefore, the solutions for our given equation are $x=-5\text{ or }x=2$ .

How many 3/4 cup servings are in 12 cups of cherries?

AveGali [126]

Answer:

16 serving.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: 3/4 cup servings.

Now, computing the number of serving in 12 cups of cherries.

Using unitary method to solve.

∴ Number of serving= $total\ cups \times number\ of\ serving\ per\ cup$

Number of serving in one cup is $\frac{4}{3}$

Number of serving in 12 cups = $12\times \frac{4}{3} = 16 \ serving$

Number of serving in 12 cups= $16\ serving$

∴ There are 16 serving is possible in 12 cups of cherries.
