Answer:

Option C

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$-6x^{2} -6x+12=0$

step 1

Group terms that contain the same variable, and move the constant to the opposite side of the equation

$-6x^{2} -6x=-12$

step 2

Factor -6 leading coefficient'

$-6(x^{2} +x)=-12$

step 3

Complete the square

Remember to balance the equation by adding the same constants to each side

$-6(x^{2} +x+0.25)=-12-1.5$

$-6(x^{2} +x+0.25)=-13.5$

step 4

Rewrite as perfect squares

$-6(x+0.5)^{2}=-13.5$

simplify

$(x+0.5)^{2}=2.25$

Two cyclists leave city at same time, one going east and the other going west. The westbound cyclist bikes 3 mph faster than the

Bumek [7]

Speed of the east bound cyclist is 12 mph and the speed of west bound cyclist is 15 mph.

<u>Solution:</u>

Let us assume that x is speed of slower eastbound cyclist

So, x+3 will be the speed of faster westbound cyclist

We know that distance is the product of speed and time. That is,

$\text{Distance}=\text{Speed}\times\text{Time}$

West-bound DATA:

Rate of speed = x+3 mph ; Time = 6 hrs ; distance = 6(x+3) = 6x+18 miles

East-bound DATA:

Rate of speed = x mph ; time = 6 hrs. ; distance = 6x miles

On solving,

Distance apart = 162

$\Rightarrow6x+18+6x = 162$

$\Rightarrow12x=162-18$

$\Rightarrow x=\frac{144}{12}\rightarrow x=12$

So, the rate of speed of the east bound cyclist is 12 mph and the rate of speed of the west bound cyclist will be $x+3=12+3=15 \text{ mph}$

Brad has two lengths of copper pipe to fit together. one has a length of 2 5/12 feet and the other has a length of 3 7/12 feet.

elena-s [515]

To find all of the feet of pipe that Brad has, you add both of the lengths of the pipes together. So 2 5/12+3 7/12. Add the numbers together first, 5. Then add the fractions, 5/12+7/12=1. So add 5 and 1 and you get 6 feet of pipe. Hope this helps.
