Answer:
1 oz of chips has 120mg of sodium, while in 1 cup of soda there are 50mg of sodium.
Step-by-step explanation:
This question can be solved by a system of equations.
I am going to say that:
x is the number of mg of sodium in 1 oz of chips.
y is the number of mg of sodium in a cup of soda.
Bryan ate 5 oz of chips and drank 1 cup of soda for a total of 650 mg of sodium.
This means that:
Jadyn ate 1 oz of chips and drank 5 cups of soda for a total of 250 mg of sodium.
This means that:
From the first equation:
Replacing in the second
1 oz of chips has 120mg of sodium, while in 1 cup of soda there are 50mg of sodium.
Answer:
x = ± 12
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
f(x) = x² - 144
To find the roots set f(x) = 0, that is
x² - 144 = 0 ( add 144 to both sides )
x² = 144 ( take the square root of both sides )
x = ± = ± 12
