Answer:

The answer is "\frac{2}{8} > \frac{3}{16} So, they eat more brownies with nuts".

Step-by-step explanation:

In the given question, the two browny pans of equal size are baked by Jeremy. There is indeed a saucepan with nuts in it, not the other pan. He split the pot into eight equal chunks with nuts. He slices the pan into 16 equal parts without nuts. His mates eat 2 nuts brownies and three nut-free brownies. They eat more nuts and brownies \frac{2}{8} > \frac{3}{16} eat more.

Q1  Solution:

x = 3 or x = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

x²-2x-3 = 0

In order to solve the quadratic equation by factoring, we have to determine two numbers whose sum is -2 and their product -3. By trial and error the two numbers are found to be; -3 and 1. The next step is to split the middle term by substituting it with the above two numbers found;

x²+x-3x-3  =  0

x(x+1)-3(x+1)  = 0

(x-3)(x+1) = 0

Finally we apply the zero Product Property :

If ab = 0 then a  = 0 or b  = 0

This implies;

x-3= 0 or x+1 = 0

x = 3 or x = -1 are the solutions to x²-2x-3 = 0

Q2  Solution:

x  = -1/2 or x  =  3

Step-by-step explanation:

2x²-5x-3  =0

In order to solve the quadratic equation by factoring, we have to determine two numbers whose sum is -5 and their product 2(-3)=-6. By trial and error the two numbers are found to be; -6 and 1. The next step is to split the middle term by substituting it with the above two numbers found;

2x²-6x+x-3  = 0

2x(x-3)+1(x-3) = 0

(2x+1)(x-3) = 0

2x+1 = 0 or x-3 =  0

2x = -1 or x =  3

x  = -1/2 or x  =  3 are the solutions of the given quadratic equation.

Q3 Soution:

x = 4 or x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

x²-7x = -12

x²-7x+12 = 0

In order to solve the quadratic equation by factoring, we have to determine two numbers whose sum is -7 and their product 12. By trial and error the two numbers are found to be; -4 and -3. The next step is to split the middle term by substituting it with the above two numbers found;

x²-4x-3x+12 = 0

x(x-4)-3(x-4)  = 0

(x-4)(x-3) = 0

x-4 = 0 or x-3 = 0

x = 4 or x = 3 are the solutions of the given quadratic equation.

Q4:

x = -2/3 or x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

3x² = 16x+12

3x²-16x-12 = 0

In order to solve the quadratic equation by factoring, we have to determine two numbers whose sum is -16 and their product 3(-12)= -36. By trial and error the two numbers are found to be; -18 and 2. The next step is to split the middle term by substituting it with the above two numbers found;

3x²-18x+2x-12 = 0

3x(x-6)+2(x-6) = 0

(3x+2)(x-6) = 0

3x+2 = 0 or x-6 =0

3x = -2 or x = 6

x = -2/3 or x = 6 are the solutions of the given quadratic equation.

Q5:

x = 6 or x = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

x²-2x-24 = 0

In order to solve the quadratic equation by factoring, we have to determine two numbers whose sum is -2 and their product -24. By trial and error the two numbers are found to be; -6 and 4. The next step is to split the middle term by substituting it with the above two numbers found;

x²-6x+4x-24 = 0

x(x-6)+4(x-6) = 0

(x-6)(x+4) = 0

x-6 = 0 or x+4 = 0

x = 6 or x = -4 are the solutions to the given quadratic equation.

Q6:

x  = 4/3 or x  = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

3x² = x+4

3x²-x-4 = 0

In order to solve the quadratic equation by factoring, we have to determine two numbers whose sum is -1 and their product -12. By trial and error the two numbers are found to be; -4 and 3. The next step is to split the middle term by substituting it with the above two numbers found;

3x²-4x+3x-4 = 0

x(3x-4)+1(3x-4)  =0

(3x-4)(x+1) = 0

3x-4 =0 or x+1 =0

3x  = 4 or x = -1

x  = 4/3 or x  = -1 are the solutions to the given quadratic equation.
