Answer: 37.5kg

Step-by-step explanation:

When you hear "of", it indicates multiplication. When you multiply by 1/4, you can also divide by 4 to get the same answer. 50/4 = 12.5kg sold

But that isnt our net sugar because thats how much he sold. Subtract that from what he has currently, and youll get the sugar he has after selling the 1/4th.

50 - 12.5 = 37.5kg

Solve for x.<br> Give the solutions in ascending order.<br><br> x^2+3x-4=0<br> x= or x=

lutik1710 [3]

To solve this equation simply find 2 numbers that multiply to give -4 and add also to give 3, these numbers are 4 and -1. Since 4 • -1 = -4 and 4 + -1 = 3.

X^2 + 3x - 4 = 0
(X - 1)(X + 4) = 0
X = -4 and X = 1 in ascending order.
