1 answer:

4 0

X*y=72
x = 5y-2

x=72/y
72/y=5y-2

72=5y^2-2y
5y^2 -2y - 72 = 0
(5y+18)(y-4)=0
y = -18/5 discard
or y = 4
4x=72
x=18

(18,4)

marshall27 [118]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

acceleration, a = 20 m/s^2

initial velocity, u = 0 since it starts from rest

final velocity, v = 400 m/s

v = u + at

400 = 0 + 20 t

400 = 20 t

t = 400 / 20

t = 20 sec
