Here is all the work with it
Answer:
x = −3 and x = −2
Step-by-step explanation:
x^2 + 5x = −6
Add 6 to each side
x^2 + 5x+6 = −6+6
x^2 +5x+6 =0
Factor
What 2 number multiply to 6 and add to 5
3*2 =6
3+2 =5
(x+3)(x+2) =0
Using the zero product property
x+3 =0 x+2 =0
x+3-3=0-3 x+2-2=0-2
x=-3 x=-2
Let volume of 4% solution = x and of 14% be y
them x + y = 65........(1) also using the actual weights of salt:-
0.04x + 0.14y = 65*0.06 = 3.9
multiplying the above equation by -25 we have
-x - 3.5y = -97.5 adding this to equation (1)
--2.5y = -32.5
y= 13
and x = 65 - 13 = 52
so we need 13 mls of the 14%, and 52 mls of the 4% solution.
Marathon C is in the middle.
From Marathon C to Dodge C is 487
Then From Marathon C to Bayfield C is also 487
And from Dodge C to Bayfield C is 487 + 487 = 974 miles
