Answer:
A. (7n-1) (8n-1)
Step-by-step explanation:
56n^2 -8n-7n+1
56n^2 -8n -7n+1
Factor out 8n from the first group and -1 from the second group
8n (7n-1) -1(7n-1)
Factor out the (7n-1)
(7n-1) (8n-1)
To solve this you can multiply the second equation by to get
3x+6y =18
Then you can subtract it by the first equation to get
7y= 14
And get y= 2
Then you plug in y to one of the equations to find that x=2
For every 3 tablespoons of cocoa, Nate uses 1 tablespoon of sugar.
Since the sugar is halved, the cocoa should be halved as well. 6/2 is 3.
