${x}^{2} + 2x = 24 \\ {x}^{2} + 2x - 24 = 0 \\ {x}^{2} + (6x - 4x) - 24 = 0 \\ ({x}^{2} + 6x) - (4x + 24) = 0 \\ x(x + 6) - 4(x + 6) = 0 \\ (x - 4)(x + 6) =0 \\ \\ therefore \: \: the \: values \: of \: x \: are \: 4 \: and \: - 6.$

Find the distance between the points (0,-2) and (-8,-8)

Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

Distance between the points = 10 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Given points:

(0,-2) and (-8,-8)

To find the distance between the two points.

Solution:

Applying distance formula to find the distance between the points.

For points $(x_1,y_1)$ and $(x_2,y_2)$ the distance is given as:

$d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}$

Plugging in the given points in the formula.

$d=\sqrt{(-8-0)^2+(-8-(-2))^2}$

$d=\sqrt{(-8)^2+(-8+2))^2}$

$d=\sqrt{(-8)^2+(-6)^2}$

$d=\sqrt{64+36}$

$d=\sqrt{100}$

$d=\pm10$

Since distance is always positive. So $d=10$ units.

Kameryn types 75 words per minute and is just starting to write a term paper. Joe already has 510 words written and types at a s

AnnZ [28]

Answer:

Kameryn will have more words typed than Joe when the number of minutes exceeds 34.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x -----> the number of minutes

y ----> the total words typed

we know that

<em>Kameryn</em>

$y=75x$ -----> equation A

$y=60x+510$ -----> equation B

Solve the system of equations by substitution

Substitute equation A in equation B and solve for x

$75x=60x+510$

$75x-60x=510$

$15x=510$

$x=34\ minutes$

That means

For x=34 minutes

The amount of words written by Kameryn and Joe are the same.

therefore

For x > 34 minutes

Kameryn will have more words typed than Joe when the number of minutes exceeds 34.
