Answer:
it's c , x= 1.5 or -4
2x^2 + 5x - 12 = 0
First factor the left side of the equation
(2x-3)(x+4)=0
Second, set the factors equal to 0
2x-3=0 or x+4=0
+3 +3 -4 -4
2x=3 -4
divide both side by 2 and you get 3/2 which equals 1.5
x=1.5 or x= -4
The dimensions would have to be 20 x 5 as the model holds the same amount for each side, and because 5 is larger than 4 its used as the models stand.
Hope it helps! :)

The answer to your question is -10
Answer:
The rate of current is 2.5 mph.
Step-by-step explanation:
The speed in the water when current is absent is 9 mph.
If the speed of the current is v mph then the upstream speed is (9 - v) mph and the downstream speed is (9 + v) mph.
Now, it takes 5 hours longer to travel 74 miles upstream than down stream, then we can write the equation as
⇒
⇒ 148v = 405 - 5v²
⇒ 5v² + 148v - 405 = 0
Applying Sridhar Acharya's formula we can write
(Neglecting the negative root)
