480=60(v+s)
480=60v+60s
8=v+s
s=8-v...
480=80(v-s) using s from above we get:
480=80(v-(8-v))
6=v-8+v
6=2v-8
2v=14
v=7, and since s=8-v, s=1
So the rate of the team is 7m/s while the rate of the stream is 1m/s
Your answer would be -9 & -42.
Here's why ...
(-9)*(-42) A negative times a negative equals a positive (378).
Now, -9-42=-51 & you add these because you have two negatives.
Hope this makes sense & helps you ! (:
I would use the quadratic formula for this:
x = -b ± √b² - 4ac over 2a
x = 8 ± √64 - 4(1)(0) over 2(1)
x = 8 ± √64 over 2
x = 8 <span>± 8 over 2 [simplify]
x = 4 </span><span>± 4
x1 = 4 + 4 x2 = 4 - 4
x1 = 8 x2 = 0
Thus, the solutions for x would be 0 and 8.</span>
If im correct it would be -2(2)+4(-2)-5 which is -4-8-5 which would be -17
