-x(3x-10)=8
-3x^2+10x=8 (DISTRIBUTE)
-3x^2+10x-8=0 (BALANCE TO ZERO)
(-3x+4)(x-2)=0 (FACTOR)
(-x+4/3)(x-2)=0 (SIMPLIFY)
{x=2 OR x= 4/3}
The least (or lowest) common denominator of 3, 16 and 8 is 16. That already points us to answer A.
Checking for each fraction:
1/2 * 8/8 = 8/16
3/16 * 1/1 = 3/16
7/8 * 2/2 = 14/16
Yep. Answer A.
<span>If dog food costs $2 a pound and Cara buys 9 pounds, her expenditure on dog food is 9 x 2. This makes $18. If she has a total budget of $25 and spends $18 on dog food, she has $7 left over for treats (25 - 18 = 7). At $1 each, she can buy up to 7 treats.</span>
