A train travels 80 miles per hour. If its speed remains the same, how far will the train have gone in 90 minutes?

1 answer:

3 0

Hello! So, the train travels 80 miles in an hour. 90 minutes is equivalent ot 1 ½ hours. In case you don't know, ½ of 80 is 40. To find the distance gone in 90 minutes, we can just add 80 and 40. 80 + 40 is 120. Another way to solve it is to multiply 80 by 1.5 and you would still get the same answer. There. The train will have gone 120 miles in 90 minutes.

Write the equation of the parabola that has its x-intercepts at (1+<img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Csqrt%7B5%7D" id="TexForm

Answer:

$y=2x^2-4x-8$

Step-by-step explanation:

Factored form of a parabola

$y=a(x-p)(x-q)$

where:

p and q are the x-intercepts.
a is some constant.

Given x-intercepts:

(1+√5, 0)
(1-√5, 0)

Therefore:

$\implies y=a(x-(1+\sqrt{5}))(x-(1-\sqrt{5}))$

$\implies y=a(x-1-\sqrt{5})(x-1+\sqrt{5})$

To find a, substitute the given point (4, 8) into the equation and solve for a:

$\implies a(4-1-\sqrt{5})(4-1+\sqrt{5})=8$

$\implies a(3-\sqrt{5})(3+\sqrt{5})=8$

$\implies4a=8$

$\implies a=2$

Therefore, the equation of the parabola in factored form is:

$\implies y=2(x-1-\sqrt{5})(x-1+\sqrt{5})$

Expand so that the equation is in standard form:

$\implies y=2(x^2-x+\sqrt{5}x-x+1-\sqrt{5}-\sqrt{5}x+\sqrt{5}-5)$

$\implies y=2(x^2-x-x+\sqrt{5}x-\sqrt{5}x+\sqrt{5}-\sqrt{5}+1-5)$

$\implies y=2(x^2-2x-4)$

$\implies y=2x^2-4x-8$
