There are many theories and measurement for the speed of light. It is believed that light travels at 299,792 km per second. In the earlier day philosopher Aristotle believed that light didn't travel but happens instantaneously. Therefore, for Galileo and his assistant to be only 1km apart, I would have to agree with Aristotle theory of light traveling instantaneously.
36 km
--------- = 12 km/liter
3 lit
Pat can drive 12 km per liter of gas.
The difference in Elevation is 280
we are given
x^2-4x-5
we can use formula
x^2-(a+b)x+ab=(x-a)(x-b)
so, we have
a+b=4
ab=-5
now, we can solve for a and b
and we get
a=5, b=-1
now, we can plug it in formula
x^2-4x-5=(x-5)(x+1) ............Answer
