The distance between Car A and car B,When Car A crosses the start line is:
distance =speed car B* time
distance=(15 m/s)(3 s)=45 m
 
Distance traveled by car A =x,  (when the car B is at the same distance from the start line)
time of car A=t

x=10 m/st  ⇒    x=10t    (1)

Distance traveled by car B=x
time of car B=t-3

x=15(t-3)  (2)

With the equations (1) and (2) we make a system of equations:

x=10t
x=15(t-3)

We solve this system of equations:

10t=15(t-3)
10t=15t-45
-5t=-45
t=-45 / -5
t=9

t-3=9-3=6

x=10 t=10 (9)=90

Answer: The time would be 9 seconds for Car A and 6 seconds for car B and the distance would be 90 meters.

What is log squared with a base of 4 with the exponent (x^2+x) and the whole thing is equal to 0.25. Find the domain of x and fi
alexandr1967 [171]

Answer:

X = 1 , -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given in question as,

(log4(x² + x))² = 0.25

log4(x² + x) = 0.5

Applying log base property if      log(a)X = b,   then X =a^b

Or, x² + x = 4^0.5

     x² + x = 2

     x² + x - 2 = 0

     x²+2x-x-2 = 0

     (x + 2) (x - 1) = 0

So, x = 1 and -2   Answer
