(x^2 - 3x + 1) - (x^2 + 2x + 7)
Distribute the negative
x^2 - 3x + 1 - x^2 - 2x - 7
Combine like terms
-5x - 6
The answer would be line segment.
Answer:
5 and 4
Step-by-step explanation:
So if, x equals 2 then all you do is turn the x into a 2.
So you rewrite the equation into,
2 + 3 and 2 x 2,
Which would be 5 and 4
Hope this helps!
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Brittany paints the room in x hours, completing 1/x of the room per hour.
Ashley paints the room in x+2 hours, completing 1/(x+2) of the room per hour.
Working together, they complete 1/x + 1/(x+2) = ⅐ of the room per hour.
7(x+2) + 7x = x(x+2)
14x + 15 = x^2 + 2x
x^2 - 12x - 15 = 0
x = [12 ±√(12²+60)]/2= 6±√51
6-√51 is an extraneous solution.
x = 6+√51 ≈ 13.14
Brittany paints the room in 12.14 hours
If it takes 20 minute to get to the airport, and he wants to be there an hour and 5 minutes before his flight leaves, we have to subtract the time he leaves (9:50) by 1 hour and 5.
9:50 - 1 hour and 5 minutes.
9:50 - 65 minutes.
9:50 - 65 = 8:45.
Which means he must be at the airport at 8:45.
BUT,
The question is asking for the latest time that Quincy can LEAVE for the airport, which means it's 8:45 - 20 minutes, since it takes 20 minutes to get to the airport:
8:45 - 20 = 8:25
