A rational number is a number that can be written as a ratio. That means it can be written as a fraction, in which both the numerator (the number on top) and the denominator (the number on the bottom) are whole numbers. The number 8 is a rational number because it can be written as the fraction 8/1.

The question is a little hard to understand... let me see what i can do. I'll edit what i figure out on here. :) (PS) Did you reword the question? Do you think you could double check and make sure this is what the question looks like?
Started her day with a full bag of apples (?)
She needs 3 for an apple pie
She had 12 total (?)
Or maybe she needs 12 for a pie and now she has 3?
X + y = 2 —> y = 2 - x
insert to first equation
2-x=x^2-3x-6
x^2 - 3x - 6 - 2 + x = 0
x^2 - 2x - 8 = 0
(x-4)(x+2) = 0
x = 4 or x = -2
