Alan is putting weed killer on a field to get it ready for planting. the directions on the can say to use 4/5 of a quart for each acre of land. how much weed killer will alan need for two fields, one that is 22 1/2 acres and one that is 38 1/4 acres?

there are many solutions.

step-by-step explanation:

step 1: simplify both sides of the equation.

4x+6=4x^2+10x−4

step 2: subtract 4x^2+10x-4 from both sides.

4x+6−(4x^2+10x−4)=4x^2+10x−4−(4x^2+10x−4)

−4x^2−6x+10=0

step 3: factor left side of equation.

−2(2x+5)(x−1)=0

step 4: set factors equal to 0.

x=-5/2 or x=1
