Teah was selling candy bars for a fundraiser. She spent $25 on a box of candy bars and sold each candy bar for $2.50. Her profit was $75. Teah wrote the equation 2.5c−25=75 for this situation, and she found c = 40.

Which statement is true about the solution c = 40?

go on the tube you might find some information there

let's call the solutions x₁ = (5 - 2√7)/3 and x₂ = (5 + 2√7)/3

then the equation is (x-x₁)(x-x₂) = 0

if you fill that in you get a lot of numbers which you can recognize as ax²+bx+c=0.

step-by-step explanation:

you can see that a=1 (there is just an x²)

b = (-5 -2√7 + 2√7 - 5)/3 = -10/3

c = -2√7)/3 ) * (-5+2√7)/3) = -1/3

so your answer is 3x^2 – 10x – 1 = 0

in counting the number of heads in 4 coin flips, the probability that we get exactly one head is the probability that we get anyone of the following 4 outcomes: httt, thtt, ttht, or ttth. each has probability 1/16, so the probability to get exactly one head in 4 flips is 1/16 + 1/16 + 1/16 + 1/16 = 4/16 = 1/4.
