Hello,
(x-3)²+2(x-3)-8=0
x²-6x+9+2x-6-8=0
x²-4x-5=0
∆=b²-4ac=(4)²-4(-5)(1)=16+20=36
x₁,₂=-b±√∆/2a=4±6/2
x₁=4-6/2=-2/2=-1
x₂=4+6/2=10/2=5

Therefore the solutions are
x=-1 and x=5

See you soon :-)

Expand and simplify
(x-3) (x-3) +2(x-3) -8=0
(x-3+2)(x-3)-8=0
(x-1)(x-3)-8=0
x^2 -4x +3-8=0
x^2 - 4x -5=0
x^2 -5x +x-5=0
x(x-5)+x-5=0
(x+1)(x-5)=0
x= - 1, 5

Free_Kalibri [48]

Answer:

5 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Time taken for trip : t + 1

Time taken for return : t

Avg. speed (trip) : 256 km/h

Avg. speed (return) : 320 km/h

The distances covered on both trips are equal.

⇒ Distance (trip) = Distance (return)

⇒ Speed (trip) × time (trip) = Speed (return) × time (return)

⇒ (256)(t + 1) = (320)(t)

⇒ 256t + 256 = 320t

⇒ 64t = 256

⇒ t = 4 hours

<u>Time (trip)</u> = t + 1 = 4 + 1 = 5 hours
