Answer:

the equation is no longer quadratic

Step-by-step explanation:

A quadratic equation is a polynomial equation in which the highest-degree term has degree 2.

<h3>What happens when <em>a = 0</em>?</h3>

The value a=0 makes the squared term disappear. If 'a' is zero, the equation becomes a linear equation, not a quadratic equation:

bx +c = 0

Answer:

x = 3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

(3)(1)+2x=6

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

(3)(1)+2x=6

3+2x=6

2x+3=6

Step 2: Subtract 3 from both sides.

2x+3−3=6−3

2x=3

Step 3: Divide both sides by 2.

2x/2 3/2

x = 3/2

Hope this helps :)

Joe left the hospital at the same time as Eugene. They drove in opposite directions. Eugene drove at a speed of 70 km/h. After t

Gala2k [10]

If Joe and Eugene are travelling in opposite directions, their total distance is 360 km.

Eugene's speed = 70 km/hour

Let Joe's speed be = x

They each travel for 3 hours, so time = 3 hours

Distance = speed * time

$360=70(3)+x(3)$

$360=210+3x$

$3x=150$

$x=50$

Hence, Joe's speed is 50 km per hour.
