Answer:

x = 65\,mi

Step-by-step explanation:

Let assume that both trip occured at constant speed. Then, the definition of speed as the ratio of travelled distance to time is used in terms of the statement:

First trip:

\frac{x + 15\,mi}{t+0.5\,h} = 40\,\frac{mi}{h}

Second trip:

\frac{x}{t} = 50\,\frac{mi}{h}

After some algebraic handling, the following linear system is created:

x - 40\cdot t =  5\\x - 50\cdot t = 0

The solution of the linear system is:

t = 0.5\,h, x = 25\,mi

The distance travelled in both trips is:

x = 65\,mi

Answer:

65 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

There are two simultaneous equations . Remeber that v=d/t, 1hour = 60 minutes.

1. 40 = (d+15)/(t+0.5)

2. 50 = d/t

solving: d= 25 miles and t=0.5 hours.

The distance traveled is:

D=d+d+15

D=65 miles

The area of square ABCD is 7cm².<br> Show that x² + 4x = 3
soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The area (A) of a square is calculated as

A = s² ( s is the measure of a side of the square )

Here s = x + 2 and A = 7, thus

(x + 2)² = 7 ← expand left side using FOIL

x² + 4x + 4 = 7 ( subtract 4 from both sides )

x² + 4x = 3 ← as required

7 is one tenth of what number
Sloan [31]

<u><em>Answer:</em></u>

70


<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>

Assume that the number we are looking for is x

one tenth is interpreted into \frac{1}{10}


Now, we know that one tenth of the number is 7, this means that:

\frac{1}{10} * x = 7


Solve for x by multiplying both sides of the equation by 10, we get:

\frac{1}{10} * x * 10 = 7 * 10

x = 70


Hope this helps :)

How many complex roots does the polynomial equation have?<br><br> 3x5−2x+1=0
dmitriy555 [2]

Answer : The given polynomial equation can have 0,2 or 4 complex roots.

Explanation:-

Given polynomial equation is 3x^5-2x+1=0 which is a polynomial of degree 5.

We know that the complex roots always occur in pair ,therefore the number of complex roots in any polynomial must be an even number but less than equal  to the degree of polynomial.

Thus, the given polynomial equation has 4 complex roots.
