The distance between Branch A and Branch B is given by the Pythagoras theorem

AB² = (Vertical Distance)² + (Horizontal Distance)²
AB² = (4-1)² + (1 - -3)²
AB² = 3² + 4²
AB² = 9 + 16
AB² = 25
AB = 5

BC² = (Vertical distance)² + (Horizontal distance)²
BC² = (-2 - 4)² + (5-1)²
BC² = (-6)² + (4)²
BC² = 36 + 16
BC² = 52
BC = 7.21

Half way of BC = 7.21 ÷ 2 = 3.6 miles

Total distance travelled from A to B and then halfway from B to C is 3.6+5 = 8.6 miles

Solve for x: 6 x2 + 2x - 3 2 = 0
Zigmanuir [339]

I think the answer is 10 because:

6x2=12

12+2x-32=0

make the like terms together = 12-32+2x=0

= -20+2x=0

again make the like terms together = 2x=0+20 [sign changes when it goes to the other side]

so, 2x=20

x=20/2 [ multiplication will change into division when it goes to the other side]

therefore x=10
