Answer:

2x² +5x -12 = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

When p and q are roots of a quadratic, its factored form can be written as ...

(x -p)(x -q) = 0

Here, the roots are given as -4 and 3/2, so the factored form would be ...

(x -(-4))(x -(3/2) = 0

Multiplying by 2 gives us ...

(x +4)(2x -3) = 0

Expanding the product, we find the desired quadratic is ...

2x² +5x -12 = 0

Allison bought jelly beans to share with her friends. She bought pounds of blueberry jelly beans and pounds of lemon jelly beans

Vaselesa [24]

Answer: $1\dfrac{11}{12}\text{ pounds}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question is provided in the attachment.

Given, Amount blueberry jelly beans= $1\dfrac{1}{4}$ pounds

$=\dfrac{5}{4}$ pounds.

Amount lemon jelly beans = $2\dfrac{1}{3}$ pounds

$=\dfrac{7}{2}$ pounds

Total jelly beans she bought = Amount blueberry jelly beans + Amount lemon jelly beans

$=(\dfrac{5}{4}+\dfrac{7}{3})$ pounds

$=\frac{15+28}{12}\text{ pounds}\\\\=\dfrac{43}{12}\text{ pounds}$

Amount of jelly beans she gave away = $1\dfrac{2}{3}=\dfrac{5}{3}\text{ pounds}$

Amount of jelly beans she has left= Total jelly beans - Amount of jelly beans she gave away

= $\dfrac{43}{12}-\dfrac{5}{3}\\\\=\dfrac{43-20}{12}\\\\=\dfrac{23}{12}\\\\=1\dfrac{11}{12}\text{ pounds}$

She has left $1\dfrac{11}{12}\text{ pounds}$ of jelly beans.

Elis [28]

$\frac{8x-2}{x-8} - \frac{2}{x-8}$

The fractions already have a common denominator of x-8, so all wee need to do is combine the numerators:

$\frac{8x-2-2}{x-8}$

$\frac{8x-4}{x-8}$
