Answer:
x = -1/2 x=-1
Step-by-step explanation:
2x( x+1.5) = -1
Distribute
2x^2 + 3x = -1
Add 1 to each side
2x^2 +3x+1 = 0
Factor
(2x+1) (x+1) =0
Using the zero product property
2x+1 = 0 x+1=0
2x = -1 x=-1
x = -1/2 x=-1
(2x - y = -2)2
5x - 2y = -7
4x - 2y = -4
Subtract both
x = -3
5(-3) - 2y = -7
-15 - 2y = -7
-2y = 8, y = -4
Solution: (-3,-4)
60. 5 cups equals 20 biscuits so 15 cups equals 60 biscuits
90 grams are equivalent to 0.09 kilograms and 55 grams are equivalent to 0.055.
So 0.09 + 0.055 = 0.145.
0.145 * 12 = 1.74
So 1.74 kilograms of sugar is needed to make 12 crisps.
