karas jug contains 2 quarts of apple cider.she fills 8 mugs with cider.each mug can hold six three fourths of fluid ounces.how m

bazaltina [42]

So first of all you need to know that in 1 quart there is 31.9995 ounces so since shes says there is 2 quarts lets do the math:)
31.9995 x 2 = 63.999 ounces
now she says she took 8 mugs and filled them up each with 6 and 3/4 ounces. lets do the math:)
6 and 3/4 x 8 = 30 ounces
now lets subtract that from our 2 quarts or 63.999 ounces
63.999 - 30 = 33.999
so we have 33.999 fluid ounces left in the jar:)
hope this helps lol

Using the quadratic formula to solve x2 + 20 = 2x, what are the values of x?

jeka94

by Quadratic formula , $x^2 + 20 = 2x$ , values of x are $x = 1 \pm (1)i\sqrt{19}}$ . None of mentioned options are correct according to question!

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Here we have , expression x2 + 20 = 2x or , $x^2 + 20 = 2x$ .

We know that Quadratic formula is :

$x = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}$

$x^2 + 20 = 2x$

⇒ $x^2-2x+20=0$

$a=1\\b=-2\\c=20$

Putting this value in equation $x = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}$ :

⇒ $x = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}$

⇒ $x = \frac{-(-2) \pm \sqrt{(-2)^{2}-4(1)(20)}}{2(1)}$

⇒ $x = \frac{2 \pm \sqrt{4-80}}{2}$

⇒ $x = (\frac{2 \pm 2i\sqrt{19}}{2})$

⇒ $x = 1 \pm (1)i\sqrt{19}}$

Therefore , by Quadratic formula , $x^2 + 20 = 2x$ , values of x are $x = 1 \pm (1)i\sqrt{19}}$ . None of mentioned options are correct according to question!
