Actually, DIEDERICK drove faster than BROOK. What you can do to find out the answer, is divide. Brook drove 180 miles in 3 hours, so divide 180 by 3, and you get 60. If you divide 160 by 4, you get 40. So, that means that Diederick drove faster than Brook.

According to the Rational Root Theorem, the following are potential roots of f(x) = 2x2 + 2x – 24.
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

The answer is 3 and (-4).

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given an equation 2x² + 2x – 24.

Let us assume that the equation is equal to zero.

2x² + 2x – 24 = 0

Now, divide whole equation by 2 we get,

x² + x – 12 = 0

x² + 4x – 3x – 12 = 0

x(x + 4) – 3(x + 4) = 0

(x – 3) (x + 4) = 0

x = 3, -4

Thus, The actual roots of f(x) are 3 and (-4).

Two numbers whose sum is 44 and whose product is a maximum
Mashcka [7]

Answer:

x = y = 22

Step-by-step explanation:

It would help to know your math course. Do you know any calculus? I'll assume not.

Equations

x + y = 44

Max = xy

Solution

y = 44 - x

Max = x (44 - x)                    Remove the brackets

Max = 44x - x^2                   Use the distributive property to take out - 1 on the right.

Max = - (x^2 - 44x )               Complete the square inside the brackets.

Max = - (x^2 - 44x + (44/2)^2 ) + (44 / 2)^2 . You have to understand this step. What you have done  is taken 1/2 the x term and squared it. You are trying to complete the square. You must compensate by adding that amount on the end of the equation. You add because of that minus sign outside the brackets. The number inside will be minus when the brackets are removed.

Max = -(x - 22)^2 + 484

The maximum occurs when x = 22. That's because - (x - 22) becomes 0.

If it is not zero it will be minus and that will subtract from 484

x + y = 44

xy = 484

When you solve this, you find that x = y = 22 If you need more detail, let me know.

Three plus the sum of the squares of w and x is 32
Roman55 [17]
The statement is an equation which is written in text form or in words. when we write it as an equation it will be:
squares of w and x is equal to w² and x² so, their sum means they are going to add.
3 + (w² + x²) = 32
three plus the sum of w² and x² is 32.
when we describe or write quantity with an equal sign it makes an equation.
