Answer:
Follow the steps
Step-by-step explanation:
Angle M is 95 degrees.
He can make 3 batches of soup.
Starting with 10 pounds of tomatoes and taking out the number of pounds he sets aside for spaghetti sauce, 2.8, we have:
10-2.8 = 7.2 pounds left.
0.2 is read as "two tenths," so 7.2 = 7 2/10
We divide this remaining number of pounds by 2 2/5 for each batch of soup:
7 2/10 ÷ 2 2/5
Convert each to an improper fraction:
72/10 ÷ 12/5
Multiply by the reciprocal:
72/10 × 5/12 = 360/120 = 3
First, take a look at 3 less than twice x. Twice x would be 2x and 3 less than it would become 2x-3.
Next, 2 more than the quantity 3 times x. The quantity of 3 times x is 3x and 2 more than that would be 3x+2.
Now that we have our two equations, we need to multiply them together, which can be shown as (2x-3)(3x+2).
Then, multiply the two equations together using FOIL (multiply the first two terms, then the outside terms, then inside, and lastly, the last two terms): 2x times 3x, 2x times 2, -3x times 3x, and 2 times -3, which equates to 6x^2+4x-9x-6.
Your final answer is 6x^2-5x-6.
X² - 8x - 20 factors to give option
B) (x - 10)(x + 2)
x² + 8x - 20 factors to give option
A) (x - 2)(x + 10)
x² - x - 20 factors to give option C) (x - 5)(x + 4)
and x² - 9x - 20 is option D) Prime.
I hope this helps!
Hi!
We will solve this using proportions, like this:
3/4 cup for 8 slices of pie
x cup for 48 slices of pie
_______________________
x = ((3/4)*48)/8
x = (3*48)/(4*8)
x = 144/32
x = 4,5
You need 4 1/2 cups of white sugar for 48 slices of pie.
Hope this helps!
