Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x = 1/2 or 2
Step-by-step explanation:
You can factor this as ...
2x^2 -4x -x +2 = 0 . . . rewrite the middle term to enable factoring
2x(x -2) -1(x -2) = 0 . . . . factor by grouping
(2x -1)(x -2) = 0 . . . . factor out (x -2)
x = 1/2, 2 . . . . . . values of x that make the factors zero
it compares by both being in the even numbers
Answer: You receive 14x+45 dollars for each gallon of cider that you sell.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: For selling each gallon of cider, the company receives x dollars.
You receive = Remaining amount
i.e. You receive $(Selling price - x)
By selling 15 gallons in 15x+45 dollars, you have received (15x+45)-x dollars
i.e. You received 15x+45-x dollars
i.e. You received 14x+45 dollars.
Hence, you receive 14x+45 dollars for each gallon of cider that you sell.
You would basically work backwards and do inverse operations
