First of all to transfer <span>(2x - 1)(x + 6) = 0 into a form where we can plug it into the quadratic formula we need to use the FOIL method.
</span><span>(2x - 1)(x + 6) = 0
</span> becomes
2x*x+2x*6+-1*x+-1*6
which simplifies to
2x^2 + 12x - x - 6
and then we add like terms to get
2x^2 + 11x - <span>6
</span>
now that it is in the correct form we can identify "a" "b" and "c" by following this form
ax^2 + bx + c
looking back at the equation we got earlier
2x^2 + 11x - <span>6</span>
a=2,b=11,and c=-6
Each "x" on the number line seems to represent a tree that sap has been collected from. That's 15 trees. Furthermore, you know that the total amount of sap is 8 gallons, because it's stated in the question.
To get the amount of sap that would be collected from each tree if it had been distributed equally (also known as the <em>average</em> amount of sap collected from each tree), just do exactly that.
Mathematically, this means you would divide the 8 gallons by 15 trees, or 8 ÷ 15. The total amount of sap collected is equivalent to an average of eight fifteenths of a gallon per tree.

Answer:
9 (make sure to place the currency symbol (e.g. £ or $) beside your answer, otherwise it may be counted as incorrect).
Step-by-step explanation:
- If one adult went and the adult tickets cost 14, we can subtract 14 from 59 to see the total cost of the children's five tickets:
59 - 14 = 45
- Because there are 5 children, you then divide that value by 5 in order to find out the cost for one child and, ultimately, the cost of each child's ticket: 45 ÷ 5 = 9
- The cost of each child's ticket is therefore 9
Answer:
240 Pints
Step-by-step explanation:
To convert 30 gallons into pints you need to multiply 30 by the conversion factor in order to get the volume amount from gallons to pints.
