Answer:
She gives 16 ounces to her neighbor
Step-by-step explanation:
How much did you use to make sauce
6 * 3/4 = 18/4 =9/2 = 4.5 lbs
That leaves 6-4.5 = 1.5 lbs
She give 2/3 of this to her neighbor
1.5 * 2/3
Changing the decimal to a fraction
3/2 * 2/3 = 1
She gives 1 pound to her neighbor, but we want it in ounces
16 ounces equals 1 pound
She gives 16 ounces to her neighbor
Answer:
x = - 3 is extraneous
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
- 1 = x ( add 1 to both sides )
= x + 1 ( square both sides )
x + 7 = (x + 1)² ← distribute right side
x + 7 = x² + 2x + 1 ( subtract x + 7 from both sides )
0 = x² + x - 6 ← in standard form
0 = (x + 3)(x - 2) ← in factored form
Equate each factor to zero and solve for x
x + 3 = 0 ⇒ x = - 3
x - 2 = 0 ⇒ x = 2
As a check
Substitute these values into the equation and if both sides are equal then they are the solutions.
x = - 3 : 
- 1 = 
- 1 = 2 - 1 = 1 ≠ - 3
x = 2 : 
- 1 = 
- 1 = 3 - 1 = 2
x = 2 is a solution and x = - 3 is extraneous
Answer:
The answer is x = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
I added similar elements, then I subtracted 7 from both sides, next I divided by 5 both sides, and lastly I got x = 5 as my answer.
