3 roads...a, b and c

b = 3a.....a = 1/3b
c = 2b.....b = 1/2c.....

a ------|
b ------|--------|------|
c ------|--------|------|------|------|------|

so a is 1/6 of the total road <===

if road b is 7 miles longer the a...
b = 3a....b = a + 7
a + 7 = 3a
7 = 3a - a
7 = 2a
7/2 = a
3.5 = a

b = 3a
b = 3(3.5)
b = 10.5

c = 2b
c = 2(10.5)
c = 21 <=====road C is 21

Noah and Lin are each trying to solve the equation x² - 6x + 10 = 0. They know that the solutions to x² = - 1 are i and -i, but

Leviafan [203]

Answer:

Solving the equation $x^2 - 6x + 10 = 0$ we get $x=3+i \ , \ x=3-i$

Step-by-step explanation:

Noah's step to solve the equation $x^2 - 6x + 10 = 0$ are:

$x^2 - 6x + 10 = 0\\x^2 - 6x = -10\\x^2 - 6x + 9 = -10 + 9\\(x-3)^2 = -1$

The next step is to take square root on both sides because: $\sqrt{x^2}=x$

$\sqrt{(x-3)^2}=\sqrt{-1} \\x-3=\pm\sqrt{-1} \\x=\pm(\sqrt{-1})+3 \\$

Now, we know that: $\sqrt{-1}=i$

$x=\pm(i)+3\\x=3+i \ , \ x=3-i$

So, Solving the equation $x^2 - 6x + 10 = 0$ we get $x=3+i \ , \ x=3-i$
