A. Two real solutions (x' = -1 and x'' = -1/4)
Answer: the rate uphill is 6 mph.
The rate downhill is 10 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the rate at which the jogger ran uphill.
The jogger runs 4 miles per hour faster downhill than uphill. This means that speed at which the jogger ran downhill is (x + 4) mph
Time = distance/speed
if the jogger can runs 5 miles downhill, then the time taken to run downhill is
5/(x + 4)
At the same time, the jogger runs 3 miles uphill. It means that the time taken to run uphill is
3/x
Since the time is the same, it means that
5/(x + 4) = 3/x
Cross multiplying, it becomes
5 × x = 3(x + 4)
5x = 3x + 12
5x - 3x = 12
2x = 12
x = 12/2
x = 6
The rate downhill is 6 + 4 = 10 mph
8x(5x2+3)=8x(15+3)=8x13=104
This figure is what we would call a composite figure. A composite figure is a shape that is made up of multiple other shapes. when looking at the pond and the border that surrounds it, we can see that this heart shape is made up of two semi circles and a square. To find the area of the border, we will use the area formulas for semi circles and for squares:
Semi Circle Area Formula:

÷
2
Square Area Formula: length x width
Pi = 3.14
Radius = Half of the diameter, in this case 6
After finding the area of each shape, we can subtract the 2 ft width to find the area of the flower bed border.
