Answer:

\large \boxed{\sf \ \ \ \dfrac{\sqrt{4025}-5}{2}=29.22144... \ \ \ }

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello

<u>Let's note the original speed of the car v</u>

it means that in 1 hour he is going v miles

so to go 200 miles it takes ( in hour)

\dfrac{200}{v}

If the speed of the car is v+5 than to go 200 miles it takes (in hour)

\dfrac{200}{v+5}

and this time is one hour less so we can write

\boxed{\sf \ \ \dfrac{200}{v+5}=\dfrac{200}{v}-1 \ \ }

We can multiply by v(v+5) both parts of the equation so

200v=200(v+5)-v(v+5)\\\\200v=200v+1000-v^2-5v\\\\v^2+5v-1000=0

\Delta=b^2-4ac=5^2+4*1000=4025\\\\ \text{There are potential solutions }\\\\\ \ \ \ \ x_1=\dfrac{-5-\sqrt{4025}}{2}\\\\\ \ \ \ \ x_2=\dfrac{-5+\sqrt{4025}}{2}

Only one is positive and this is is

x_1=\dfrac{\sqrt{4025}-5}{2}=29.22144...

So the original speed is 29.22144... mph

Hope this helps.

Do not hesitate if you need further explanation.

Thank you

Which values of k would cause this system of equations to have no solution? Check all that apply.
xeze [42]

Answer:

x= -2y/3

-4y+4y=14

0y= 14

This has no solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer In cases of two equations having two unknown variables the simultaneous method of solving the equations is adopted.

Supposing “0” as the value of “k” we will have the equation as 3x+2y=0

Then separating variable x will give, x= -2y/3

Substituting the value of x into the first equation that is: 6x + 4y = 14

6(-2y/3)+4y=14

Expanding this we get: 6(-2y/3)+4y=14

-4y+4y=14

0y= 14

Thus, no solution.

Twenty percent of a number is 14. find the number
7nadin3 [17]
The answer is:   70  .
___________________________________________
Explanation:
_________________________________

(20/100) x = 14;  solve for "x".

(20/100) = 2/10 = 1/5 ; 

(1/5) x = 14

x/5 = 14 ; 

x = 14 * 5 ; 

x = 70 .  The answer is:  70 .
