At the beginning of the month, there were 80 ounces of peanut butter in the pantry. now, there is 1/3 less than that. how many ounces of peanut butter are in the pantry now?

Complete the square to determine the minimum or maximum value of the function defined by the expression. x2 − 12x − 2 a) maximum value at 38 b) minimum value at 38 c) maximum value at −38 d) minimum value at −38

Follow these steps using the algebra tiles to solve the equation −5x + (−2) = −2x + 4. 1. add 5 positive x-tiles to both sides and create zero pairs. 2. add 4 negative unit tiles to both sides and create zero pairs. 3. divide the unit tiles evenly among the x-tiles. x =

What is the expression in factored form? -x^2 + 3x + 28 a. (x-7)(x-4) b. -(x-7)(x+4) c. (x+4)(x+7) d. -(x-4)(x+7)
