Answer: x=1 or x=-3

Step-by-step explanation:

Quadratic formula is -b+-\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac } /2

a=1 b=2 c=-3

Substitute

(-2+-\sqrt{2^{2}-4(1)(-3) }) /2\\(-2+-\sqrt{4+12}) /12\\(-2+-\sqrt{16}) /2\\(-2+-4) /2\\x=\frac{-2+4}{2} \\x=\frac{-2-4}{2} \\\\\\Simplify\\x=\frac{2}{2} \\\\x=\frac{-6}{2} \\\\Simplify\\x=1\\x=-3

B. <span>2x + 4 = 49

It is because a triangle has 2 sides and the question shows that 2 triangles equal the same so that becomes 2x. The third side is 4 so u add that to 2x which becomes 2x+4 and the perimeter equals 49 so basically the equation should be </span>2x + 4 = 49.

<u>ANOTHER EXPLANATION:
</u>
The equation for perimeter is P=L+W
SO SUBSTITUTE ALL THE NUMBERS THAT ARE INCLUDED IN THE QUESTION AND THEN U CAN GET UR ANSWER.

EG is 12.2 because the line down the middle is called a bisect which means that it splits the triangle right down the middle making each side equal. so if you do 6.1 x 2 or just add 6.1+6.1 which is the same thing lol, you will have your answer

Answer:

It will not taste the same bc there is too much oj.

Step-by-step explanation:

The recipe is saying that for every 4 cups of pineapple juice you put in, you must put in 5 cups of orange juice.  That means if you put 8 cups of pineapple juice, you need 10 cups of orange juice, and if you have 12 cups of pineapple juice, you need 15 cups of oj.  Obviously, 15 is less than 20.  You are using too much oj, and because of this, it will not taste the same.
