B; 25.65+13.23+6.35=45.23

To do this mentally just add the 2 decimals places together first (1.23). Then just add the whole numbers (44). Then add the 2 numbers together, 44+1.23=45.23

kykrilka [37]

5 liters = 5000ml

If they combine, they would have
5000 + 750 = 5750ml

one serving = 180ml
Number of serving = 5750 ÷ 180 = 31 serving with 170ml remaining

Isabella is solving the equation 4x^2=13x-3 with the quadratic formula

laiz [17]

Answer:

x=(3,1/4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Be sure to use the formula...

$-b + or - sqrt{b^{2} - 4ac } / 2a$

- First, move all variables to one side (left) of the equation. You want one side to be equivalent to zero.

-Next, you need to find a, b, and c. This should be...

a=4

b=-13

c=3

- Knowing this, fill in these variable to go along with the formula. I cannot do this for you, as you should try it on your own. But, you should end up with the solution x= (3,1/4).

- Hope this helps! If you need a further explanation or help on any more problems please let me know, as I would be glad to help anytime.

What is the sales tax rate?

Allisa [31]

Hello there! We are solving for the tax rate, so let's start off by subtracting both prices. 4.32 - 4.00 is 0.32. That's a 32 cent difference in the price. Now, let's divide that number by the original price to find the percentage. 0.32/4 is 0.08. Multiply that number by 100 and that is 8%. There. The sales tax rate is 8%.
