Answer:

A. 3 hours 20 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance divided by the speed gives you the time.

(234 miles)/(70 mph) = 3.343 hours.

3.343 hours is decimal hours. We need hours and minutes.

1 hour = 60 minutes. We separate the whole hours from the decimal part of the hours, and we multiply the decimal part of the hours by 60 to find minutes.

3.343 hours =

= 3 hours + 0.343 hours

= 3 hours + 0.343 hours * 60 minutes/hour =

= 3 hours + 20.6 minutes

The closest answer is:

A. 3 hours 20 minutes

Part 1
svetlana [45]

Answer:

A: This polynomial has a degree of 2 , so the equation 12x2+5x−2=0 has two or fewer roots.

B: The quadratic equation 12x2+5x−2=0 has two real solutions, x=−2/3 or x=1/4 , and therefore has two real roots.

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 12x^2 + 5x - 2.

Since this is a quadratic equation, or a polynomial of second degree, one can easily conclude that this equation will have at most 2 roots. At most 2 roots mean that the function can have either 2 roots at maximum or less than 2 roots. Therefore, in the A category, 2nd option is the correct answer (This polynomial has a degree of 2 , so the equation 12x^2 + 5x − 2 = 0 has two or fewer roots).

To find the roots of f(x), set f(x) = 0. Therefore:

12x^2 + 5x - 2 = 0. Solving the question using the mid term breaking method shows that 12*2=24. The factors of 24 whose difference is 5 are 8 and 3. Therefore:

12x^2 + 8x - 3x - 2 = 0.

4x(3x + 2) -1(3x+2) = 0.

(4x-1)(3x+2) = 0.

4x-1 = 0 or 3x+2 = 0.

x = 1/4 or x = -2/3.

It can be seen that f(x) has two distinct real roots. Therefore, in the B category, 1st Option is the correct answer (The quadratic equation 12x2+5x−2=0 has two real solutions, x=−2/3 or x=1/4 , and therefore has two real roots)!!!

Y = 2x - 3<br> x + 2y = 4
uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

x=2 , y = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

x + 2(2x-3) = 4

x+4x-6=4

5x-6=4

5x= 10

x=10/5

x=2

subs x=2 into x +2y=4

2+2y=4

2y=2

y=2/2

y=1

A spinner is divided into 10 congruent sections, numbered 1 through 10. If Cleo spins the spinner once, what is the probability
mario62 [17]

Answer:

20% or 1/5 or 0.2

Step-by-step explanation:

1. There are 10 sections, which means <em>each section has a a chance of 10% to be landed on</em>.

2. There are <em>two multiples of four under 10: 4 and 8</em>.

That means there is a <em>2 * 10%</em> = 20% chance that the spinner will land on a multiple of 4.
