Answer:
x = -10
Step-by-step explanation:
x/4=-2.5
multiply both sides by 4
x/4*4=-2.5*4
-2.5 times 4 is -10
x = -10
Answer:
1 hotdog cost $2.25
1 popcorn cost $3.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the price of hotdog be and that of popcorn be p
For the first hour;
15p + 14h = 84 •••• (i)
for the second hour;
18p + 16h = 99 •••••(ii)
so we want to solve these two equations simultaneously
In equation 1,
14h = 84-15p
h = (84-15p)/14
Simply insert this into equation ii
18p + 16(84-15p)/14 = 99
Multiply through by 14
252p + 1344 - 240p = 1386
1386-1344 = 252p-240p
12p = 42
p = 42/12
p = $3.5
to get cost of hotdogs;
h = (84-15p)/14
Substitute p = 3.5
h = (84-52.5)/14
h = 31.5/14
h = 2.25

Answer:
x = 8 or x = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
x^2 - 6x + 9 = 25
x^2 - 6x - 16 = 0
The formula to solve a quadratic equation of the form ax^2 + bx + c = 0 is equal to x = [-b +/-√(b^2 - 4ac)]/2a
with a = 1
b = -6
c = -16
substitute in the formula
x = [-(-6) +/- √(-6^2 - 4(1)(-16))]/2(1)
x = [6 +/- √(36 + 64)]/2
x = [6 +/- √10]/2
x = [6 +/- 10]/2
x1 = [6 + 10]/2 = 16/2 = 8
x2 = [6 - 10]/2 = -4/2 = -2
