Answer:

x= -1, -9

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

1/4x2+5/2x+21/4=3

Step 2: Subtract 3 from both sides.

1/4x2+5/2x+21/4−3=3−3

1/4x2+5/2x+9/4=0

For this equation: a=0.25, b=2.5, c=2.25

0.25x2+2.5x+2.25=0

Step 3: Use quadratic formula with a=0.25, b=2.5, c=2.25.

x=−b±√b2−4ac/2a

x=−(2.5)±√(2.5)2−4(0.25)(2.25)/2(0.25)

x=−2.5±√4/0.5

x=−1,−9

Rachel works at a bookstore. On Tuesday, she sold twice as many books as she did on Monday. On Wednesday, she sold 6 fewer books
natali 33 [55]
Let m = the amount books Rachel sold on Monday.
then t = the amount books Rachel sold on Tuesday.<span>
then w = </span><span>the amount books Rachel sold on Wednesday.

On Tuesday she sold twice as she did on Monday.
 t = m * 2

On Wednesday she sold 6 fewer books than she did on Tuesday
w = t - 6

Now for the fun.

t = m * 2
w = t - 6

Substitute t for real value

w = m * 2 - 6

Now solve for m.

w - 6 = m * 2 <-- Transpose the 6
(w-6)/2 = m <-- Transpose the 2.
m = (w-2)/2 < The Law of Reflexive Property of Equality</span>

Your father is planning to cook for 35 people using a recipe that specifies two and a half cups of sugar for each six people,
almond37 [142]

Your father will require 14.6 cups of sugar for the larger group

<h3>Ratio and proportions</h3>

From the question, we have that 2.5 cups of sugar can be used to make recipes for 6 people that is;

6 people = 2.5 cups of sugar

In order to calculate for 35 people, we will have;

35 people  = x

Taking the ratio of the expressions

6/35 = 2.5/x

6x = 87.5

x = 87.5/6

x = 14.6

Hence your father will require 14.6 cups of sugar for the larger group
