Answer: 0
Step-by-step explanation:
if a was -2 and b was positive 2, they would both add up to 0
Amount times cost=profit
profit beverages=x times 1.26 or 1.26x
profit candy=y times 1.09 or 1.09y
the total profit is profit beverage plus profit candy or 1.26x+1.09y
they want total profit of 181.59
so
181.59=1.26x+1.09y is the answer in standard form
usually, we want whole numbers, but that's fine
<span>The first three steps of completing the square to solve the quadratic equation x^2 + 4x - 6 = 0, are shown below.
step 1: x^2 + 4x = 6
step 2: x^2 + 4x + 4 = 6 + 4
step 3: (x + 2)^2 = 10
step 4: x + 2 = +/-sqrt(10)
step 5: x = sqrt(10) - 2, or x = -sqrt(10) - 2
so the steps are in order.</span>
Factors of a number are integers that when multiplied together will equal the original number
Example: Factors of 36
1,2,3,4,6,9,12,18,36
1x36 = 36
2x18=36
3x12=36
4x9=36
6x6=36
