The quadratic formula helps us solve any quadratic equation. First, we bring the equation to form ax²+bx+c=0, where a, b, and c are coefficients. Then, we plug these coefficients in the formula: (-b±√(b²-4ac))/(2a) . See examples of using the formula to solve a variety of equations.
This is proven and I’m positive this is what your asking! BRAINLIEST please
Answer:
Cost of small box = $13
Cost of large box = $18
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the cost of small box of candy = $s
And the cost of large candy box = $b
Beth sold 9 small and 10 large boxes of candies for $297.
9s + 10b = 297 -----(1)
Sarah sold 8 small and 5 large boxes of candies for $194.
8s + 5b = 194 -------(2)
Multiply equation (2) by 2 then subtract equation (1) from (2).
2(8s + 5b) - (9s + 10b) = (2×194) - 297
16s + 10b - 9s - 10b = 388 - 297
7s = 91 ⇒ s = $13
From equation (2),
(8×13) + 5b = 194
104 + 5b = 194
5b = 90
b = $18
Total length of all ribbons = 12 * 3 = 36 inch
Then, number of ribbons = 36/4 = 9
In short, Your Answer would be: 9 sections
Hope this helps!
