so we know that each m&m weighs about 2g.

the next line says to write a direct variation equation.

(definition: mathematical relationship between two variables that can be expressed by an equation in which one variable is equal to a constant times the other)

we then make the equation ( w=xm), then we use that equation to figure out the next line, which is to find the amount of m&ms that would fit in a bag of 1000.

(my head cant really process part a cause of a recent headache, so sorry if its wrong)

the answer to part b would be 500, which you can provide evidence based off of your part a equation.

Solve the quadratic equation:<br> 3x^2+x-5=0

adell [148]

3x²+x-5=0

a = 3, b = 1, c= -5

-> ∆ ( delta ) = b²-4ac = 61 > 0

-> x1 =( -b+√∆ )÷ 2a =...

x2 = (-b-√∆)÷2a =...

p/s: do your teachers teach you how to use ∆ ( delta ) in maths calculation ? i live in europe and our teachers teach us that way. however, it is a rịght and fast way. you should learn it.
