1.) use a property to write an equivalent expression for 12*(100-5). which property did you use? 2.) stephen is combing all of the juice shown to make fruit punch. does the expression (64+28+76)÷6 show how you could calculate the number of 3/4 cup servings? explain. (the amount of juice is in the parentheses)

1. 12*100 - 12*5

You would use the distributive property to get this equation (it is equivalent to the original one)

2. Um... There's no actual story for this problem; sorry I can't solve this problem

3 is greater then both of those numbers

x = ±sqrt(10)

step-by-step explanation:

5 - 2x² = -15

subtract 5 from each side

5-5 - 2x² = -15-5

-2x^2   = -20

divide by -2 on each side

-2x^2   /-2= -20/-2

x^2 =10

take the square root on each side

sqrt(x^2 )=±sqrt(10)

x = ±sqrt(10)

check:

5 - 2x² = -15

+sqrt(10)

5 - 2(sqrt(10))² = -15

5 -2(10) = -15

5 -20 = -15

-15 = -15

-sqrt(10)

5 - 2(-sqrt(10))² = -15

5 -2(10) = -15

5 -20 = -15

-15 = -15
