1500m=1.5km so 1500 divided by 10= 150s it takes 150s to cover a distance of 1.5km
The solution to the quadratic equation are option C) x= -5 and option E) x=3.
<u>Step-by-step explanation</u>:
The given quadratic equation is x²+2x-15 = 0.
Using the factorization method,
- product of the roots should be -15.
- Sum of the roots should be 2.
⇒ -15 = 5
-3
⇒ 2 = 5+(-3)
(x+5)(x-3) = 0
Therefore, x = -5 and x = 3
The given quadratic describes a parabola that opens upward. Its one absolute extreme is a minimum that is found at x = -3/2. The value of the function there is
(-3/2 +3)(-3/2) -1 = -13/4
The one relative extreme is a minimum at
(-1.5, -3.25).
_____
For the parabola described by ax² +bx +c, the vertex (extreme) is found where
x = -b/(2a)
Here, that is x=-3/(2·1) = -3/2.
Answer:
x = 7.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Since DF bisects ∠CDE then
∠EDF = ∠CDF, hence
8x = 4x + 30 ( subtract 4x from both sides )
4x = 30 ( divide both sides by 4 )
x = 7.5
