Answer:
It's like solving a quadratic, but in reverse, and in this case you'll arrive at x2+x−12=0
Explanation:
We're going to go "backwards" with this problem - normally we're asked to take a quadratic equation and find the roots. So we'll do what we normally do, but in reverse:
Let's start with the roots:
x=3, x=−4
So let's move the constants over with the x terms to have equations equal to 0:
x−3=0, x+4=0
Now we can set up the equation, as:
(x−3)(x+4)=0
We can now distribute out the 2 quantities:
x2+x−12=0
Answer:
see below
Step-by-step explanation:
<h3>Given</h3>
- Distance is 142.2 m, correct to 1 decimal place
- Time is 7 seconds, correct to nearest second
<h3>To find:</h3>
- Upper bound for the speed
<h3>Solution </h3>
<em>Upper bound for the speed = upper bound for distance/lower bound for time</em>
- Upper bound for distance = 142.25 m (added 0.1/5 = 0.05)
- Lower bound for time = 6.5 seconds (subtracted 1/2 = 0.5)
<u>Then, the speed is:</u>
- 142.25/6.5 = 21.88 m/s
- 21.88 = 21.9 m/s correct to 1 decimal place
- 21.88 = 22 m/s correct to nearest m/s
The answer is B) x^3-1 because it's the only one with the 3rd degree
The answer is 1.16 or 0.86 because it’s 14.63/17
