Step 1: Assign variable for the unknown that you need to find.
Step 2: List the given details
Distance between you and your friend is 12 miles. It means the total distance traveled by you by walk and your friend using bicycle when both travel towards each other to meet in 't' hours
Equation 1:
Your Walking rate and your friends Cycling rate is given below:
Step 3: Set up an equation using the relationship between distance, time and rate.
Substituting the above in equation 1
Distance traveled by you by walking from home and distance travelled by your friend in cycle in 0.8 hours is given below:
Factored Form:
x^2 - 4x - 5
Simplifying:
x^2 + - 4x + - 5 = 0
Reorder the terms:
- 5 + - 4x + x^2 = 0
Solving for variable " x":
Subproblem 1:
Set the factor ( - 1 + - 1x) equal to Zero and attempt to solve.
Simplifying:
- 1 + - 1x = 0
Solving:
- 1 + - 1x = 0
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right
Add 1 to each side of equation:
- 1 + 1 + - 1x = 0 + 1
Combine Like Terms: 0 + 1 = 1
x = - 1
Divide each side by - 1
x = - 1
Simplifying: x = - 1
Subproblem 2: Set the factor (5 + - 1x) equal to Zero attempt to solve
Simplifying:
5 + - 1x = 0
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right
Add - 5 to each side of the equation
5 + - 5 + - 1x = 0 + 5
Combine Like terms: 5 + - 5 = 0
0 + - 1x = 0 + - 5
- 1x = 0 + - 5
Combine Like Terms: 0 + - 5 = - 5
- 1x = - 5
Divide each side by - 1
x = 5
Simplifying:
x = 5
Solution:
x = { - 1, 5}
Answer when factored:
(x + 1)(x - 5)
hope that helps!!!
Answer:
Yes it can because an isoseles triangle is just a triangle with two equale sides
Step-by-step explanation:
Factor out the 4 in both equations
8a^2-20^2=(2^2 times a^2 times 2)-(2^2 times 5)
therefor it is also equal to
(2a)^2 times 2-(2^2 times 5)
we can force it into a difference of 2 perfect squares which is a^2-b^2=(a-b)(a+b)
(2a√2)^2-(2√5)^2=((2a√2)-(2√5))((2a√2)+(2√5))
Answer:
y= -40
