8064 cartons in 21 days......8064/21 = 384 cartons per day
the cartons were delivered in cases of 6.....384 / 6 = 64 cases
each of 16 coffee shops received an equal number of cases..
64/16 = 4.....so each coffee shop received 4 cases per day <==
40x+8x^2=0 can be solved for x (there are two solutions):
Divide all 3 terms by the greatest common multiple (which is 8x):
40x+8x^2=0
------------- -----
8x 8x
5 + x = 0 produces the root x = - 5.
Setting 8x = 0 and solving for x produces the root x = 0.
Be certain to check these results. substitute x = -5 into 40x+8x^2=0. Is the resulting equation true or false? Next, subs. x=-5 into 40x+8x^2=0. Is the resulting equation true or false?
