Answer:
3 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
d=3t is our formula.
d being the distance (9 inches for this problem)
t is the time in minutes
Substituting our known information would make our equation look like:
9 = 3t
to solve for t we divide both sides of the equation by 3
9/3 = 3t/3
3 = t
So if a snail travels 3 inches per minute, it will have traveled 9 inches in 3 minutes.
The quadratic equations and their solutions are;
9 ± √33 /4 = 2x² - 9x + 6.
4 ± √6 /2 = 2x² - 8x + 5.
9 ± √89 /4 = 2x² - 9x - 1.
4 ± √22 /2 = 2x² - 8x - 3.
Explanation:
- Any quadratic equation of the form, ax² + bx + c = 0 can be solved using the formula x = -b ± √b² - 4ac / 2a. Here a, b, and c are the coefficients of the x², x, and the numeric term respectively.
- We have to solve all of the five equations to be able to match the equations with their solutions.
- 2x² - 8x + 5, here a = 2, b = -8, c = 5. x = -b ± √b² - 4ac / 2a = -(-8) ± √(-8)² - 4(2)(5) / 2(2) = 8 ± √64 - 40/4. 24 can also be written as 4 × 6 and √4 = 2. So x = 8 ± 2√6 / 2×2= 4±√6/2.
- 2x² - 10x + 3, here a = 2, b = -10, c = 3. x =-b ± √b² - 4ac / 2a =-(-10) ± √(-10)² - 4(2)(3) / 2(4) = 10 ± √100 + 24/4. 124 can also be written as 4 × 31 and √4 = 2. So x = 10 ± 2√31 / 2×2 = 5 ± √31 /2.
- 2x² - 8x - 3, here a = 2, b = -8, c = -3. x = -b ± √b² - 4ac / 2a = -(-8) ± √(-8)² - 4(2)(-3) / 2(2) = 8 ± √64 + 24/4. 88 can also be written as 4 × 22 and √4 = 2. So x = 8 ± 2√22 / 2×2 = 4± √22/2.
- 2x² - 9x - 1, here a = 2, b = -9, c = -1. x = -b ± √b² - 4ac / 2a = -(-9) ± √(-9)² - 4(2)(-1) / 2(2) = 9 ± √81 + 8/4. x = 9 ± √89 / 4.
- 2x² - 9x + 6, here a = 2, b = -9, c = 6. x = -b ± √b² - 4ac / 2a = -(-9) ± √(-9)² - 4(2)(6) / 2(2) = 9 ± √81 - 48/4. x = 9 ± √33 / 4 .
Answer:
m∠RQS = 72°
m∠TQS = 83°
Step-by-step explanation:
m∠RQS +m ∠TQS = m∠RQT
The two angles combine to make a larger angle
So
m∠RQS = (4x - 20)
m∠TQS = (3x + 14)
(4x - 20) + (3x + 14) = 155
Group the Xs and the constants
4x + 3x - 20 + 14 = 155
Combine like terms
7x - 6 = 155
Add 6 to both sides
7x = 161
Divide by 7 on both sides
x = 23
Check:
4(23) - 20 + 3(23) + 14 = 155
92 - 20 + 69 + 14 = 155
155 = 155
But we need to find m∠RQS and m∠TQS. So plug in x = 23 to the values.
m∠RQS = 4(23) - 20 = 72°
m∠TQS = 3(23) + 14 = 83°
Checking:
72 + 83 = 155
Answer:
Week 16
Step-by-step explanation:
Week 1: 3.5 miles => 22.5 miles left
22.5/1.5 increments = 15 weeks
15 weeks + week 1 = 16th week
Answer:
x=
28
/89
Step-by-step explanation:
3x(32)=7x+28
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
96x=7x+28
Step 2: Subtract 7 from both sides.
96x 7x+28
−7 −7
89x=28
Step 3: Divide both sides by 89.
89x
/89
=
28
/89
