To solve using completing square method we proceed as follows:
x^2-10x+8=0
x^2-10x=-8
but
c=(b/2)^2
c=(10/2)^2=25
thus we can add this in our expression to get
x^2-10x+25=8+25
factorizing the LHS we get:
(x-5)(x-5)=33
(x-5)^2=33
getting the square roots of both sides we have:
x-5=+/-√33
x=5+/-√33
5.6 in a fraction is 5 and 6/10, or 5 3/5. To get the mixed fraction, multiply the whole number (to the left) by the denominator (bottom of fraction), and add to the numerator (top of fraction). So 5 × 5 = 25 + 3 = 28. So it'd be 28/5.
C) 1/2 a cup for one serving, also the smaller one.
D) i dont know this one, but the answers for C are for sure correct
If you were to list these numbers in order from greatest to least, it would be 1.29, 1.202, 1.02.
Hope this helps!!
Answer:
0.5 pounds of butter.
Explanation
X pounds for 0.25 gallons.
0.5 gallon of cream - 1 pound of butter
0.25 gallons of cream - X pounds of butter
Applying cross multiplication:
0.5X = 0.25
X = 0.25 over 0.5 or 0.25/0.5
X = 0.5
Therefor, you could make 0.5 pounds of butter with 0.25 gallons of cream.
