You take the amount paid and divide it by the amount of cheese. So 10.50 divided by 2.5 equals 4.2 and 12.60 divided by 3 equals 4.2 meaning that one pound of cheese costs $4.20
B. 12 would be your answer
23. it increased by 12 because the difference between -4 and 8 is 12
24. 25 because 40 minus 15 is 25
26. 5 because 156 minus 96 equals 60 and 60 divided by 12 equals 5
Answer: x=-5 or x=2
Step-by-step explanation:
x^2+3x-10=0
x^2+5x-2x-10=0
x(x+5)-2(x+5)=0
(x+5)(x-2)=0
x+5=0 or x-2=0
x=-5 or x=2
