<span>8 is a common factor for all coeficients so we factor it out first: 8(2x^2 + x + 4). Now we have to check can we factor the quadratic equasion in the brackets to linear factors. To do that we need to check is the discriminant D=b^2 - 4ac > 0 where a=2, b=1 and c=4. When we insert our numbers, we get: D= -31. We see that D < 0 so 8(2x^2 + x + 4) is the completely factored form.</span>
<span>The first equation is a direct variation. This type of equation has a form that is "y = kx," in which k is the constant. Changing both sides by a common multiple will still lead to the equation being evaluated as true, since the values will both increase by that multiple.</span>

Given :
For the school's sports day, a group of students prepared 12 1/2 litres of lemonade. At the end of the day they had 2 5/8 litres left over.
To Find :
How many litres of lemonade were sold.
Solution :
Initial amount of lemonade, I = 12 1/2 = 25/2 litres.
Final amount of lemonade, F = 2 5/8 = 21/8 litres.
Amount of lemonade sold, A = I - F
A = 25/2 - 21/8 litres
A = 9.875 litres
Therefore, 9.875 litres of lemonade were sold.
Hence, this is the required solution.
