Answer:
3/4*x - 3/4*8=12
3/4x -6=12
3/4x=12+6
3/4x=18
x=24
Step-by-step explanation:
multiply 3/4 into the content inside the brackets
have -3/4*8 cross the equal sign changing its sign from - to +
divide both sides by 3/4
Answer:
x=4 y=0
Step-by-step explanation:
You add the two equations together to get 3x=12. You derive x=4 and y=0 from that.
You will use the ratio 4:8 to create a part to part to whole ratio.
First simplify 4:8 to 1:2, then make it 1:2:3 (Salt:Sugar:Total).
Use this to find the volume of sugar. 2 sugars for every 3 total would be equivalent to 200 cubic feet of sugar for every 300 total cubic feet.
This equation is not factor-able, so we can use the quadratic formula.
x=(-11+square root(11^2-4(-12*-3)))/(2*-12)
x=(-11+square root(-23))/(-24)
Since we have the square root of a negative in this equation, there are no real roots for the quadratic.
