Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

When you normally find a percentage of something you multiply. So, if you do the reverse operation, or divide, you'll get your answer.

18/24% is 75. And when you double check this by multiplying 75 by 24% you get 18. So, the bag of skittles <u>had</u> a total of 75 skittles.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

2x² - 4x - 3 = 0

$x= \frac{-b+/-\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac} }{2a} \\\\x= \frac{-(-4)+/-\sqrt{(-4)^{2}-4*2*(-3)} }{2*2} \\\\x= \frac{4+/-\sqrt{16+24} }{4} \\\\x= \frac{4+/-\sqrt{40} }{4} = \frac{4+/-2\sqrt{10} }{4}=\frac{2+/-\sqrt{10} }{2}$
