It would be 10 hours but the distance would be 260 mph.

Answer:

780 miles


Step-by-step explanation:

Before the car started its journey, the truck was already 260 miles ahead of the car.

52 miles per hour for 5 hours is 52*5=260 miles


From then onwards, the car travels at 78mph and truck still 52mph. How much faster is the car?

78-52=26 miles per hour

<em><u>This means the car is catching up on the truck at 26 miles every hour! </u></em>


And we know the distance to catch up is 260 miles.

<em>So at 26 miles every hour, how long would it take the car to catch up 260 miles?</em>

\frac{260}{26}=10 hours.


We want to know how far are they from Amsterdam when the catch up happens. So in 10 hours at 78 miles per hour, the car is  78*10=780 miles from Amsterdam <em>(this is when catch up occurs).</em>


So the distance is 780 miles from Amsterdam

16x2 + 10x – 27 = -6x + 5<br> What are the solutions to this equation ?<br> X<br> x=
bonufazy [111]

Answer:

x=-2              x=1

Step-by-step explanation:

16x2 + 10x – 27 = -6x + 5

Add 6x to each side

16x^2+6x + 10x – 27 = -6x+6x + 5

16x^2 +16x -27 = 5

Subtract 5 from each side

16x^2 + 16x – 27-5 = 5 - 5

16x^2 +16x -32 = 0

Factor out 16

16 (x^2 +x-2)=0

Factor

16 (x+2) (x-1) =0

Using the zero product property

  (x+2) =0     x-1=0

x=-2              x=1
