1/4 + 1/2 + x = −3/4
get a common denominator 1/4
1/4 +2/4 +x = -3/4
combine like terms
3/4 +x =-3/4
subtract 3/4 from each side
x = -3/4 -3/4
x = -6/4
divide top and bottom by 2
x = -3/2
x = -1 1/2
Answer : x = -1 1/2
Substitution doesn't work for this, but elimination does.
-6x-8y=-20 +6( x+6y=-6)
-6x-8y=-20 + 6x+36y=-36
-6x and 6x cancel each other, add -8 and 36 to get 28, and -20 and -36 to get -56.
28y=-56
divide by 28 on both sides.
Y= -2
Then substitute y into one of the equations.
x+6(-2)=-6
x-12=-6
x=6
The ordered pair is (6,-2).
Answer:
More information is needed, maximum weekly profit is $1750.
Step-by-step explanation:
The maximum profit would assume Burger King does not sell any burgers on Friday, therefore all 500 burgers were sold at $3.50. 500*$3.50 = $1750 in maximum earnings for the week. More information is needed about the split between the burgers sold over the week.
Maybe the question was trying to say 500 burgers were sold on Friday. In that case, assuming every customer got three burgers, 500/3 = 166.6 customers, rounding down because you cannot have half a customer, 166 customers on Friday. Each customer paid for two burgers 166*2*$3.50 = $1162 in earnings on Friday.
If this is correct the answer would be
y^2 + 0.1y + 0.0025
Answer:
2x2+9x−1=x
Step 1: Subtract x from both sides.
2x2+9x−1−x=x−x
2x2+8x−1=0
Step 2: Use quadratic formula with a=2, b=8, c=-1.

This is what I got but I'm not 100% positive. I checked it on a calculator and it seemed to check out.
