Bob is taking his son to look at colleges. The first college they plan to visit is 150 miles from their home. In the first hour

Let's find the remaining distance they must travel.

Total distance-distance covered
150-60=90 mi

Now, we need to find the average speed they need to travel per hour to reach the destination in 2.5 (2 1/2) hours.


90 mi/2.5 h=36 mi/h

They must travel at an average speed of 36mph to reach their destination in 2 1/2 hours.

Check:
60+36(2.5)
=120 mi

Which equation involves a prime quadratic and cannot be solved by factoring? A. x2 + 6x + 9 = 0 B. x2 − x − 6 = 0 C. x2 + 3x − 4
Hitman42 [59]

The answer is D, because the others can be solved. A when factored is equal to -3, when B is factored it is equal to 3,-1, when C is factored it is 1,-4. D can be solved but you will only get irrational numbers which can't be used.

Instructions:Select the correct answer. You’re given two side lengths of 10 centimeters and 8 centimeters. The angle between the
EleoNora [17]

Since we are given the lengths of 2 sides with the angle in between, therefore by cosine law we can only construct 1 triangle from this. By stating the angle in between, this constricts the possible number of triangles that can be formed into 1.

By calculation, the length of the 3rd side is calculated using cosine law:

c^2  = a^2 + b^2 – 2abcosθ

c^2 = 10^2 + 8^2 – 2(10)(8)cos40

c = 6.44 cm


ANSWER:

1 triangle
