Answer: 1 5/12 cups of flour leftover

Step-by-step explanation: First, add 4 2/3 + 5 1/4. This gives you 9 11/12. 9 11/12 - 8 1/2 = 1 5/12.

If FG = 2 units, FI = 7 units, and HI = 1 unit, what is GH? 3 units 4 units 5 units 6 units

I think the points given here are plotted linearly:

FGHI. in this case, we can tell that FG + GH + HI = FI. substituting to the expression devised, 2 units + GH + 1 unit = 7 units. This is equal to 3 units + GH = 7 units. GH is then equal to 4 units.

Solve x2 - 8x - 9 = 0. Rewrite the equation so that it is of the form x2 + bx = c.

barxatty [35]

Answer:

x=9,-1 and $x^2+(-8)x=9$

Explanation:

we have been given with the quadratic equation $x^2-8x-9$

we compare the given quadratic equation with general quadratic equation

general quadratic is $ax^2+bx+c=0$

from given quadratic equation a=1,b= -8,c= -9

substituting these values in the formula for discriminant $D=b^{2}-4ac$

$D=(-8)^2-4(1)(-9)=100$

Now, to find the value of x

Formula is $x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{D}}{2a}$

Now, substituting the values we will get

$x=\frac{-(-8)\pm\sqrt{100}} {2}= \frac{8\pm10}{2}=9,-1$

And rewritting the given equation by shifting 9 to right hand side of the given equation and taking minus inside the bracket so as to convert it in the form of

$x^2+bx=c$
