Answer: 4.5 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. You have the following information given in the problem above:

- Erica runs $\frac{1}{6}km$ in a minute.

- The school is $\frac{3}{4}km$ away from her home.

2. Therefore, to solve the exercise you must multiply $\frac{3}{4}km=0.75km$ by 1 minute and divide this by $\frac{1}{6}km=0.166km$ , as following:

$x=\frac{(0.75km)(1min)}{(0.166km)}\\x=4.5min$

3. Therefore, the result is 4.5 minutes.

Solving Quadratic Equations using the Square Root Property

Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

$x = -2$ or $x = -5$

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to complete the square before you can take the square root of both sides.

$x^2 + 7x + 10 = 0$

Subtract 10 from both sides.

$x^2 + 7x = -10$

To complete the square, you need to add the square of half of the x-term coefficient to both sides.

The x-term coefficient is 7. Half of that is 7/2. Square it to get 49/4. Now we add 49/4 to both sides of the equation.

$x^2 + 7x + \dfrac{49}{4} = -10 + \dfrac{49}{4}$

$(x + \dfrac{7}{2})^2 = -\dfrac{40}{4} + \dfrac{49}{4}$

$(x + \dfrac{7}{2})^2 = \dfrac{9}{4}$

Now we use the square root property, if

$x^2 = k$ , then

$x = \pm \sqrt{k}$

$x + \dfrac{7}{2} = \pm \sqrt{\dfrac{9}{4}}$

$x + \dfrac{7}{2} = \pm \dfrac{3}{2}$

$x + \dfrac{7}{2} = \dfrac{3}{2}$ or $x + \dfrac{7}{2} = -\dfrac{3}{2}$

$x = -\dfrac{4}{2}$ or $x = -\dfrac{10}{2}$

$x = -2$ or $x = -5$
