Answer:
9. 
8 10
10. 6 
9
Step-by-step explanation:
4 1/2 = 9/2
8 1/4 = 33/4
1/3 x 9/2 = 3/2
1/3 x 33/4 = 33/12
◆ Define the variables:
Let the calorie content of Candy A = a
and the calorie content of Candy B = b
◆ Form the equations:
One bar of candy A and two bars of candy B have 774 calories. Thus:
a + 2b = 774
Two bars of candy A and one bar of candy B contains 786 calories
2a + b = 786
◆ Solve the equations:
From first equation,
a + 2b = 774
=> a = 774 - 2b
Put a in second equation
2×(774-2b) + b = 786
=> 2×774 - 2×2b + b = 786
=> 1548 - 4b + b = 786
=> -3b = 786 - 1548
=> -3b = -762
=> b = -762/(-3) = 254 calorie
◆ Find caloric content:
Caloric content of candy B = 254 calorie
Caloric content of candy A = a = 774 - 2b = 774 - 2×254 = 774 - 508 = 266 calorie
The answer to this question is letter B
2x^2 - 12x + 17
you just simplify it by doing the square number to the bracket and then multiply everything in the bracket by the number outside the bracket (this example 2)
