Answer:f
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the constant has been moved to the left side, you can move on to the next step which is adding (b/2)² to both sides of the equation.
h² + 14h + (14/2)² = -31 + (14/2)²
Simplify the parenthesis and exponent.
h² + 14h + 7² = -31 + 7²
h² + 14h + 49 = -31 + 49
h² + 14h + 49 = 18
Factor the expression of the left.
(h + 7)(h + 7) = 18
Take the square root of both sides.
√(h + 7)(h + 7) = ± √9 • 2
(h + 7) = ± 3√2
h + 7 = ± 3√2
Subtract 7 from both sides.
You solutions are:
h = -7 + 3√2 → -2.7573 → -2.76
h = -7 - 3√2 → -11.2426 → -11.24
Answer:
He needs 3.75 lbs of sugar and 1.25 lbs of water.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x lbs be the amount of sugar in the syrup. Then 5-x lbs is the amount of water in this syrup.
Note
5 lbs - 100%
x lbs - 75%
Write a proportion:

Cross multiply:

So, he needs 3.75 lbs of sugar and 5 - 3.75 = 1.25 lbs of water.
73.94 X .33 = 24.40 thats how much the markup (or profit is)
73.94 + 24.40 = 98.34 thats how much they sold it for.
