Its 2x^2-4x, to check it add it to 3x^2-2x or
2x^(2)-4x+3x^(2)-2x
At very minimum, move (4/5)x to the other side of the given equation. Then:
-(4/5)x + y = 0.85. This is the equation in standard form.
The answer is 98 small and 57 large cups.
s - the number of small cups
l - the number of large cups
<span>Ashley sold a total of 155 cups: s + l = 155
</span><span>Ashley earned</span><span>for $265: 1.25 * s + 2.50 * l = 265
</span>s + l = 155
1.25 * s + 2.50 * l = 265
________
s = 155 - l
1.25 * s + 2.50 * l = 265
________
1.25 * (155 - l) + 2.50 * l = 265
193.75 - 1.25 * l + 2.50 * l = 265
193.75 + 1.25 * l = 265
1.25 * l = 265 - 193.75
1.25 * l = 71.25
l = 71.25 / 1.25
l = 57
______
s = 155 - l
l = 57
s = 155 - 57
s = 98
