What is the largest perfect square that would be a factor when simplifying √48?

kari74 [83]

This expression is a perfect square trinomial. It has two answers but they don't have to be different. In this case it has to be the same - because it is a perfect square trinomial.

Answer:

The matrix equation is $\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&1&1\\1&-1/2&0\\0&2&-1\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{c}120&35&20\end{array}\right]$

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets change the story problem to equations

- The distance between the starting point and checkpoint 1 is x

- The distance between checkpoint 1 to checkpoint 2 is y

- The distance between checkpoint and the finish line is z

- The total distance for the race is 120 miles

∴ x + y + z = 120 ⇒ (1)

-The distance from the starting point to checkpoint 1 is 35 miles

more than half the distance from checkpoint 1 to checkpoint 2

∵ The distance from the starting point to checkpoint 1 is x

∵ The distance from checkpoint 1 to checkpoint 2 is y

- x is more than half y by 35

∴ x = 35 + (1/2) y ⇒ subtract (1/2) y from both sides

∴ x - (1/2) y = 35 ⇒ (2)

- The distance from checkpoint 2 to the finish line is 20 miles less

than twice the distance from checkpoint 1 to checkpoint 2

∵ The distance from checkpoint 2 to the finish line is z

∵ the distance from checkpoint 1 to checkpoint 2 is y

- z is less than twice y by 20

∴ z = 2y - 20 ⇒ add 20 to both sides

∴ z + 20 = 2y ⇒ subtract z from both sides

∴ 2y - z = 20 ⇒ (3)

* Now lets write the three equations

# x + y + z = 120 ⇒ (1)

# x - (1/2) y = 35 ⇒ (2)

# 2y - z = 20 ⇒ (3)

- Now lets write the matrix equation that models this situation

∴ $\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&1&1\\1&-1/2&0\\0&2&-1\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{c}120&35&20\end{array}\right]$

There is a type of ammo in f/o/r/t/n/i/t/e that can be magically used for every single gun. You open an ammo box, and out pops 141 rounds of that ammo. You have already collected 6 guns. How many rounds go into each gun?

The answer is 23.5

THERE IS A REMAINDER??

Nothing happens! Literally! It never happened! There is no ammo that can be used for all the guns. GG and hope to see you on the game sometime, cause...i am not allowed to have it.

Problem page a long distance runner starts at the beginning of a trail and runs at a rate of 6 miles per hour. one hour later, a

alukav5142 [94]

The thing you have to figure out about this is the distance for each person and the time it takes for the biker to meet the runner. The rates we are told. The formula is distance = rate times time. Let's do that for the runner first. His rate is 6 so the formula so far is d = 6t. Now let's work on the time. If the biker left an hour later than the runner, then the runner has been running an hour more than the biker. Therefore, the runner's time is t + 1. Hold off on the distance part til we do for the biker what we just did for the runner. The biker's rate is 14, and we already decided that his time is t. His equation is d = 14t. Now at the exact moment the biker meets the runner their distances are the same. So if the equation for the runner is d = 6t + 6 and the equation for the biker is d = 14t and their distances are the same, by the transitive property, their rates and times are the same as well, meaning we set them equal to each other and solve for t. 6t + 6 = 14t. 6 = 8t and t = 3/4. This means that it took 45 minutes for the biker to meet the runner.
