I believe the answer is 2
-4 (2x - 3) > -28
Divide by -4 on both sides. Since we're dividing by a negative, we need to switch the sign.
2x - 3 < 7
Add 3 to both sides
2x < 10
Divide by 2 on both sides
x < 5
Given that the hot chocolate is made of 480 grams of milk and 20 grams of cacao.
We need to determine the percentage of cacao in hot chocolate.
<u>The percentage of cacao:</u>
The total grams of hot chocolate can be determined by adding the total grams of milk and the total grams of cacao.
Total grams of hot chocolate = Grams of Milk + Grams of cacao
Total grams of hot chocolate = 480 + 20 = 500 grams.
Thus, the total grams of hot chocolate is 500 grams.
Now, we shall find the percentage of cacao.
The percentage of cacao is given by

Simplifying, the values, we get,

Thus, the percentage of cacao is 4%
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Synthetic division is one way to determine whether or not a given number is a root of the quadratic. x^2 − 12x − 20 can be rewritten as x^2 - 12x + 36 - 36 - 20, or (x - 6)^2 - 56, which does not have integer solutions:
(x - 6)^2 - 56 = 0 becomes (x - 6)^2 = 56, which works out to x - 6 = ± 2√14.
None of the possible roots suggested in this problem turns out to be an actual root.
correct response: PRIME
Answer:
x ≈ 1.32, x ≈ - 5.32
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
x² + 4x - 7 = 0 ( add 7 to both sides )
x² + 4x = 7
To complete the square
add ( half the coefficient of the x- term )² to both sides
x² + 2(2)x + 4 = 7 + 4
(x + 2)² = 11 ( take the square root of both sides )
x + 2 = ±
( subtract 2 from both sides )
x = - 2 ± 
Thus
x = - 2 -
≈ - 5.32 ( to 2 dec. places )
x = - 2 +
≈ 1.32 ( to 2 dec. places )
