Hello,
I believe that your answer is A. (250,100)
Hope this helps
The equation is - =
Solution
<u>Step 1:</u>
Take square on both sides, we get
3x - 2 -2 = x +2
<u>Step 2:</u>
Subtract 3x - 2 from both sides, we get
-2
<u>Step 3:</u>
Again, square on both sides in order to get rid of the square root from the above equation, we get
Now we have to simplify it,
<u>Step 4:</u>
Now we have to solve this quadratic equation, in order to get the solution.
We get x = 2 and x = -2, When we verifying solution in the original given equation, the solution does not satisfy the equation.
Reason: We get negative number in the square root.
Therefore, it has no Roots.
<em>Answer: b) No roots</em>
To divide 1/2 by 4, you can treat it as (1/2)/(4/1), and to divide fractions you flip the second fraction and multiply, so:
(1/2)*(1/4)=1/8
So each portion of chocolate was 1/8 pounds.
