Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:
is the expression given to be solved.
First of all let us have a look at <u>3 formulas</u>:

Both the formula can be applied to the expression(
) during the first step while solving it.
<u>Applying formula (1):</u>
Comparing the terms of
with 

So,
is reduced to 
<u>Applying formula (2):</u>
Comparing the terms of
with 

So,
is reduced to
.
So, the answers can be:


847 over 100 that is the answer
There are several important information's already given in the question. Based on those information's the answer to the question can be easily deduced.
Number of cups of Oatmeal
required by Aunt Bess for making 6 dozen cookies = 3
Then
Number of cups of oatmeal
required by Aunt Bess for making 1 dozen cookies = (3/6)
= 1/2
So
Number of cups of oatmeal
required by Aunt Bess for making 18 dozen cookies = (1/2) * 18
= 9 cups
So Aunt Bess will require 9 cups of oatmeal for baking 18 dozen cookies. I hope the procedure is clear enough for you to undestand.
quadratic formula:
x = <u>-b ± √(b² - 4ac)</u>
2a
7x² - x = 7
subtract 7 from both sides:
7x² - x - 7 = 0
plug values into the quadratic formula:
x = <u>-(-1) ± √((-1)²- 4(7)(-7))</u>
2(7)
simplify:
x = <u>1 ± √(197)</u>
