How to find instantaneous and average velocity?

1 answer:

Average velocity is equal to the change in distance / change in time :

v(avg) = s / t

that's the average distance, but at some point the object could have moved faster / slower and we want to see the instantaneous velocity. The principal is the same. You take a a little piece of the road for a little piece if time and get the avg velocity of the tiny part of the road. But this way it will be not the exactly speed at that moment, it will be just the avg speed in the little fragment. So we must add limits. What will be the velocity for so tiny part of time that it approaches zero?
We get :

lim s/t = ds/dt
t->0

Solve each quadratic equation by completing the square. Give exact answers--no decimals.

alexandr1967 [171]

Answer:

$x_1= -3+4(\sqrt{2})i\\\\x_2 = -3-4(\sqrt{2})i$

Step-by-step explanation:

In this problem we have the equation of the following quadratic equation and we want to solve it using the method of square completion:

$x ^ 2 + 6x +41 = 0$

The steps are shown below:

For any equation of the form: $ax ^ 2 + bx + c = 0$

1. If the coefficient a is different from 1, then take a as a common factor.

In this case $a = 1$ . Then we go directly to step 2

2. Take the coefficient b that accompanies the variable x. In this case the coefficient is 6. Then, divide by 2 and the result squared it.

We have:

$\frac{6}{2} = 2$

$(\frac{6}{2}) ^ 2 = 9$

3. Add the term obtained in the previous step on both sides of equality

$x ^ 2 + 6x + 9 = -41 +9$

4. Factor the resulting expression, and you will get:

$(x + 3) ^ 2 =-32$

Now solve the equation:

Note that the term $(x + 3) ^ 2$ is always > 0 therefore it can not be equal to -32.

The equation has no solution in real numbers.

In the same way we can find the complex roots:

$(x + 3) ^ 2 = -32\\\\(x + 3) = \±\sqrt{-32}\\\\x = -3 \± \sqrt{-32}\\\\x = -3 \± 4(\sqrt{2})i\\\\x_1= -3+4(\sqrt{2})i\\\\x_2 = -3-4(\sqrt{2})i$
