Answer:
Quadratic polynomial is x^2 - x - 20
The given equation is

And we have to solve for y.
Solving for y, means isolating y . And to isolate y, we need to get rid of 4 that is with y .
It means we have to separate 4 from y, and for separation , we have to perform division. That is, we have to divide both sides by 4, and that will be the next step .
So out of the four options, correct option is the last option .
Hello from MrBillDoesMath!
Answer:
33769/181
Discussion:
Each term contains "x" so factoring it out gives
x( 1/4 + 1/14 + 1/17) = 71 (*)
Use common factor (17*14*4 = 952) as the denominator to combine terms:
1/4 = (17*14)/ 952 = 238/952
1/14 = (17*4)/952 = 68/952
1/17 = (14*4)/952 = 56/952
so 1/4 + 1/14 + 1/17 = (238 + 68 + 56)/ 952 = 362/952 = 181/476
Substituting in (*) gives
x ( 181/476) = 71 => multiply both sides by 476/181
x = (71 * 476)/181 => 71* 476 =33769
x = 33769/181

Answer:
8 pieces of candy
Step-by-step explanation:
Take the original amount of candy in the bowl to be
.
It says that 20 pieces of candy were added, therefore there are
pieces of candy in the bowl.
Half of the candy is gone, therefore
pieces of candy are left in the bowl.
After half of the candy is gone, there are 14 pieces left, so we can say that
