Answer:

t = 36

Step-by-step explanation:

If one of the roots is "a", the equation can be factored as ...

(5x -a)(x -a) = 0

5x^2 -6ax +a^2 = 0

Comparing terms to the given equation, we see that ...

-6ax = -36x

a = 6 . . . . . . . . divide by -6

Then ...

a^2 = t

36 = t . . . . . . . substitute 6 for a

_____

The roots are 6 and 6/5.

Hi there!

$\large\boxed{a = 6 m/s^{2}}$

Use the kinematic equation to solve for acceleration:

$a = \frac{v_{f}-v_{i}}{t}$

Where:

vf = final velocity

vi = initial velocity

t = time

Plug in the given values:

$a = \frac{65-35}{5}\\\\a = 30 / 5 \\\\=6 m/s^{2}$
