Step-by-step explanation:

We are given

The student council earned $1.25 for every cup of hot chocolate it sold

and $0.75 for every cup of apple cider it sold

total number of cup is 375

We can see that first term is 1.25x

and we have

The student council earned $1.25 for every cup of hot chocolate

so, to find total cost of hot chocolate , we multiplied 1.25 with x

that's why

x must be the number of cups of hot chocolate sold

So the answer must be C

Can someone please tell me what I'm doing wrong? I think I know how to do quadratic formula, and I know all the steps, but the l

Nata [24]

Okay, so first you set equal to 0:
$6-6x^{2}=3x\\-6x^{2}-3x+6=0$

Next simplify the equation so that the leading coefficient is positive:
$\frac{-6x^{2}-3x+6}{-3}=\frac{0}{3}\\2x^{2}+x-2=0$

Looking at the quadratic equation you can't easily simplify it, so plug it into the quadratic equation and simplify:
$x=\frac{-b\ -+\ \sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}\\\\x=\frac{-(1)\ -+\ \sqrt{(1)^{2}-4(2)(-2)}}{2(2)}\\\\x=\frac{-1\ -+\ \sqrt{1+16}}{4}\\\\x=\frac{-1\ -+\ \sqrt{17}}{4}*\frac{-1}{-1}\\\\x=\frac{1\ -+\ \sqrt{17}}{-4},\ or\ B.$

I noticed a couple mistakes in your work, so if you want me to I can explain them in the comments section :)
