To solve this equation you need to find the value of x.
You can do this by using inverse operations.
and getting x alone.
 x/4=5
the opposite of division is multiplication so we multiply 5 by 4
x=5*4
we now have x alone and must solve the rest of the equation
5*4=20
There for x=20
The recipe originally made 20 servings.


I hope this helped:) If you have any questions pleas comment and i will do my best to answer and/ or explain :)

Write a quadratic equation in standard form that has roots of -12 and 2
djyliett [7]

Answer:

x² + 10x - 24

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the roots are x = - 12 and x = 2 then the corresponding factors are

(x + 12) and (x - 2) and their product equals zero , that is

(x + 12)(x - 2) = 0 ← expand using FOIL

X² + 10X - 24 = 0

A store sells four-packs of permanent markers in assorted colors for $3.19 per pack. All spiral-bound notebooks, whether wide-ru
diamong [38]

Answer:

D. 1.06(3.19x + 1.20y + 1.20z)

Step-by-step explanation:

Since marker packs are 3.19 each, the cost of the marker packs she buys can be represented by 3.19x.

All spiral notebooks are 1.20 each, so the cost of the wide ruled notebooks can be represented by 1.20y.

The cost of the college ruled notebooks can be represented by 1.20z.

In the expression, all of these terms have to be added together and multiplied by 1.06 to calculate the sales tax.

So, the expression will be 1.06(3.19x + 1.20y + 1.20z)

D is the correct answer

If the midpoint of A (a, b) and B(-9, 6) is M(-3, 5):<br> Find the value of a.
WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

\huge{ \fbox{ \text{3}}}

Step-by-step explanation:

\sf{A ( \: a \:, b \: )\:  \longrightarrow{ \: (x1 \:, y1)}}

\sf{ \: B( - 9 \: 6) \:  \longrightarrow{ (x2 \:, y2)}}

\boxed{ \sf{midpoint = ( \frac{x1 + x2}{2}  \: , \frac{y1 + y2}{2} )}}

\mapsto{ \sf{( - 3 \:, 5 \: ) \:  =  \: ( \frac{a + ( - 9)}{2}  \:,  \frac{b + 6}{2}}})

\mapsto{ \sf{( - 3 \:, 5) \:  =  \: ( \:  \frac{a  - 9}{2}  \:,  \frac{b + 6}{2} )}}

\sf{  \mapsto{ - 3 =  \frac{a - 9}{2} }}

Solve for a

\mapsto{ \sf{ - 6 = a - 9}}

\mapsto{ \sf{a - 9 =  - 6}}

\mapsto{ \sf{a =  - 6 + 9}}

\mapsto{ \sf{a = 3}}

The value of a is 3

Hope I helped!

Best regards! :D
