The baker needs to use 100/3 pounds of 90% chocolate to make the cake.

<h3>Equation </h3>

An equation is an expression used to show the relationship between two or more numbers and variables.

Let x represent the amount of 90% chocolate. Using equation:

100 * 70% + x * 90% = (x + 100) * 75%

100 * 0.7 + 0.9 * x = (x + 100) * 0.75

70 + 0.9x = 0.75x + 75

x = 100/3

The baker needs to use 100/3 pounds of 90% chocolate to make the cake.

If f(x) = 2x2 +5/(x-2), complete the following statement:
faust18 [17]

For this case we have the following function:

f (x) = 2x ^ 2 + \frac {5} {x-2}

By definition, we have that the domain of a function is given by all the values for which the function is defined. The given function is not defined when the denominator is zero.

So:

x-2 = 0\\x = 2

Thus, the function is not defined at x = 2.

The domain is given by all real numbers except 2.

Answer:

The domain is given by all real numbers except 2.

If the total area of a picture measuring 10 inches by 12 inches plus a matting of uniform width surrounding the picture is 224 s
ELEN [110]
Let
x-----------> <span>uniform width surrounding the picture

we know that
(10+2x)*(12+2x)=224-----> 120+20x+24x+4x</span>²=224
4x²+44x+120-224=0
4x²+44x-104=0

using a graph tool-----> to resolve the second order equation
see  the attached figure

the solution is
x=2 in

the answer is
2 inches
