He made a mistake in step #2. It seemed to be a trivial mistake because it involved signs, but it still had a great impact. Since step#2, his solution was already wrong.
Instead of
(-1)²-4(2)(-6) = 1 + 48 = 49
What he did is
(-1)²-4(2)(-6) = -1 + 48 = 47
6 Cucumbers = $2
$2/6 = $0.33 per cucumber
12 peppers= $9
$9/12= $0.75 per pepper
6 tomatoes= $4
$4/6= $0.66 per tomatoes
9 cucumbers= $2.97
18 peppers= $13.5
21 tomatoes=$13.86
Total= (2.97+13.5+13.86)----> $30.33
Can you show me a picture of the problem?
It is beans and Obama 3+8 and u have to simplify for negative
