Let's say the father does overtake the boy, the boy would have been travelling for 1 hour and 15 minutes at 8mph, therefor he would have travelled a total of 1.25*8 = 10 m
Now to reach the boy in 15 minutes the father must travel at a speed of 10/0.25 = 40 mph

Answer:

72

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on the table, the left and the right side have a pattern. When 3 is added to the left side, the right side is multiplied by 6. Since 12 multiplied by 6 is 72, the missing number is 72.

Which of the following is the complete factorization of 3x2-6x-240?
AURORKA [14]
1.  Reduce  <span>3x2-6x-240   to    x^2 - 2x - 80

2.  Use " ^ " to indicate exponentiation

3.  Factor  </span>x^2 - 2x - 80 using completing the square:

     x^2 - 2x + 1^2 - 1^2 - 80

         (x+1)^2 - 1  - 80
          (x+1)^2 - 81
          (x+1)^2 - 9^2  = (x+1-9)(x+1 +9), or (x-8)(x+10)

Final answer, with all factors shown:      3(x-8)(x+10)

Factories 24x^2-41x+12
andriy [413]

Answer:

(3x - 4)(8x - 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the factors of the product of the coefficient of the x² term and the constant term which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term.

product = 24 × 12 and sum = - 41

The required factors are - 32 and - 9

Use these factors to split the x- term

24x² - 32x - 9x + 12 ( factor the first/second and third/fourth terms )

= 8x(3x - 4) - 3(3x - 4) ← factor out (3x - 4) from each term

= (3x - 4)(8x - 3) ← in factored form
