After trial and error, you discover that - 2 works.

-2 || 3   16    18   -4

           -6   -20    4

====================================

      3    10  - 2    0

What you have left is a quadratic

3x^2 + 10x - 2 You can just use the quadratic formula to solve for the other 2 roots.

x1 =  [ - 10 +/- sqrt(10^2 - 4*3*(-2) ) ] / 6

x1 =  [ -10 +/- sqrt (100 + 24) ) /6

x1 =  [ - 10 +/- sqrt(124) ) / 6

x1 = [ - 10 +/- 11.14 ] / 6 = 0.1893

x2 = [ - 21.14 ] / 6 = - 3.522

Answer

x1 = - 2

x2 = 0.1893

x3 = - 3.522

Find the duration
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Time : 9:00am to 10:15am 
Duration: 1hour 15 mins or 1.25hours

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Find difference in distance travelled between the two cyclists.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Difference in speed = 6km/h
1 hour = 6 km
1.25 hours = 7.5km

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Find the distance the cyclist traveled
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
42.5 - 7.5 = 35km
35km ÷ 2 = 17.5km

The slower cyclist traveled 17.5 km in the 1.25 hours

17.5 + 7.5 = 25 km

The faster cyclist traveled 25km in the 1.25 hours

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Find the speed of the slower cyclist
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1.25 hour = 17.5 km
1 hour = 17.25 ÷ 1.25
1 hour = 14km

The cyclist was traveling at 14km/h

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Find the speed of the faster cyclist
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1.25 hour = 25km
1 hour = 25 ÷ 1.25
1hour = 20 km

The cyclist was traveling at 20km/hour

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Answer: The speed were 14km/h and 20 km/h

What would my final balance be if i put $650 in the bank for 60 months with an interest rate of 6%?
Flauer [41]
Your final balance would be $2,340.

I = Prt
Percent (6%) x rate (650) x time (60 months) = 2,340

6% = 0.06

0.06 x 60 x 650 = 2,340
