Answer:

a)The second student arrive 7 minutes and 36 seconds sooner

b)They have to walk 598,51 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed= Distance/Time

We are looking for time now

Time = Distance/Speed

First student

Time = 780 m/0.90 m/s=866,66 seconds

Second student

Time = 780 m/1.90 m/s=410,52 seconds

Difference=866,66-410,52= 456,14 seconds

In minutes

Difference= 456,14 seconds /60=7 minutes 36 seconds

Distance=Speed x Time

Speed¹ x Time¹ =Speed² x Time²

Time¹= Time² + 5.50 min

5.50 min =350 seconds

Time²  =Speed¹ x Time¹ /Speed²

Time²  =Speed¹ x (Time² + 350 seconds  ) /Speed²

Time²  =0.9 x (Time² + 350 seconds  ) /1.9

Time²  =0,4737 x (Time² + 350 seconds  )

Time²  =0,4737 Time² + 165,79 seconds

Time²  - 0,4737 Time² = 165,79 seconds

0,5263 Time² = 165,79 seconds

Time² = 165,79 seconds/0,5263 =315,01 seconds

Distance=1,9 x 315,01 seconds = 598,51 m

Use the quadratic formula to solve x^2-2x+2=0
Helen [10]
The quadratic formula is...
\frac{-b (+/-)\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}
your a will be in front of your x^2, b in front of your x, and c will be the number without an x. Plug those into the equation and you'll get two answers. That will be it
