Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the rate of the first hiker.

if one hiker walks 1.1 mph fast than the other, it means that the rate of the second hiker would be x + 1.1

Two hikers are 33 miles apart and walking towards each other. They meet in 10 hours. This means that in 10 hours, both hikers travelled a total distance of 33 miles.

Distance = speed × time

Distance covered by the first hiker in 10 hours would be

x × 10 = 10x

Distance covered by the second hiker in 10 hours would be

10(x + 1.1) = 10x + 11

Since the total distance covered by both hikers is 33 miles, then

10x + 10x + 11 = 33

20x + 11 = 33

20x = 33 - 11 = 22

x = 22/20 = 1.1 miles per hour

The rate of the second hiker would be

1.1 + 1.1 = 2.2 miles per hour.

(CESGRANRIO) Determine o parâmetro m na equação x²+mx+m²-m-12=0, de modo que ela tenha uma raíz nula e outra positiva.
slavikrds [6]
Vamos lá. 

<span>Pede-se para determinar o parâmetro "m" da equação abaixo, sabendo-se que uma raiz é nula e a outra é positiva: </span>

<span>x² + mx + m² - m - 12 = 0 </span>

<span>Veja que se uma raiz é nula (é igual a zero), então vamos substituir o "x" por "0", na equação acima: </span>

<span>0² + m*0 + m² - m - 12 = 0 </span>
<span>0 + 0 + m² - m - 12 = 0 </span>
<span>m² - m - 12 = 0 ------resolvendo essa equação do 2º grau você encontrará as seguintes raízes: </span>

<span>m' = -3 </span>
<span>m'' = 4 </span>

<span>Dessa forma, vamos substituir "m" por (-3) e por 4 e ver se a equação terá uma raiz nula e outra positiva. Vamos ver? </span>

<span>Substituindo "m" por "-3", ficamos com: </span>

<span>x² - 3x + (-3)² - (-3) - 12 = 0 </span>
<span>x² - 3x + 9 + 3 - 12 = 0 </span>
<span>x² - 3x +12 - 12 = 0 </span>
<span>x² - 3x = 0 <------Veja que as raízes dessa equação são: x' = 0 e x'' = 3 </span>
<span>Veja que para m = -3, a equação se verifica, pois temos uma raiz igual a "0" e a outra positiva (igual a 3). </span>

<span>Agora vamos substituir "m" por 4 na equação original: </span>

<span>x² + 4x + 4² - 4 - 12 = 0 </span>
<span>x² + 4x + 16 - 16 = 0 </span>
<span>x² + 4x = 0 <----- Veja que as raízes dessa equação são: x' = 0 e x'' = -4. </span>
<span>Observe que, para m = 4, a equação NÃO se verifica, pois temos uma raiz igual a "0" e a outra negativa (igual a -4). E no enunciado é informado que uma raiz deverá ser nula e a outra positiva. Como deu uma nula e a outra negativa, então m = 4 não convém. </span>

<span>Logo, o valor de "m" deverá ser: </span>

<span>m = -3 <----Pronto. Essa é a resposta. </span>
