Answer:
30.76923077 or (approx: 30.77)
Step-by-step explanation:
-has 3 1/4 cups
-drinks 1 cup
(3 1/4-1=2 1/4)
3 1/4=100% (3 1/4 divided by 1=3.25)
1 =x% (100 divided by 3.25)
Approx 30.77%
14. (2x - 1)(x + 7) = 0Using the zero factor property, we know that either the first or second terms (or both) must be equal to 0 if their product is 0. We can set each term equal to 0 to find the solutions:
2x - 1 = 0
2x = 1
x = 1/2
x + 7 = 0
x = -7
15. 
To solve this equation, you first need to set it equal to 0:

Next, it can be factored:

Finally, we can solve just like we did above:
x + 5 = 0
x = -5
x - 2 = 0
x = 2
16. 
First, you can simplify by dividing each side by 4:

Now, set the equation equal to 0:

Next, factor:

Finally, find the solutions:
x + 5 = 0
x = -5
x - 5 = 0
x = 5
