The solutions would be +0.37 and -0.37.

When completing the square, we take 1/2 of the value of b (in this case 5).  5/2=2.5.  We then square this number:  2.5²=6.25.  We add this value to both sides of the equation:

x²+5x+6.25 = 2+6.25
(x+2.5)² = 8.25

Take the square root of both sides:
√(x+2.5)² = √8.25
x + 2.5 = 2.87

Subtract 2.5 from both sides:"
x+2.5-2.5 = 2.87-2.5
x = 0.37

We have to take the positive and negative values for solutions, however, since a square root has both positive and negative answers.

Answer:

The solutions would be +0.37 and -0.37.


When completing the square, we take 1/2 of the value of b (in this case 5).  5/2=2.5.  We then square this number:  2.5²=6.25.  We add this value to both sides of the equation:


x²+5x+6.25 = 2+6.25

(x+2.5)² = 8.25


Take the square root of both sides:

√(x+2.5)² = √8.25

x + 2.5 = 2.87


Subtract 2.5 from both sides:"

x+2.5-2.5 = 2.87-2.5

x = 0.37

Ashley can ride her bicycle 15 miles in 2 hours. There are 60 minutes in 1 hour, and there are 1,760 yards in 1 mile. How many y
stepladder [879]
Speed is given by:
speed=distance/time
given that:
1 mile=1,760 yards
1 hour=60 min
then the speed in yards/sec will be:
distance Ashley covered is 15 miles
time=2 hours
thus;
speed=(15x1760)/(2x60)
=220 yards/ min
