Answer:
hypotenuse
Step-by-step explanation:
5 2/3 = 17/3 = 34/6
8 5/6 = 53/6
34/6 - 53/6 = -19/6 = -3 1/6
Answer:
first do:
60mph * 4 hours= 240mi
Let D = the distance the passenger train has to
travel to catch the freight train
Start a stopwatch when the passenger train leaves
Let t = the time on the stopwatch when they meet
Equation for freight train:
d-240=60t
Equation for passenger train:
d=100t
all together:
100t-240=60t
we can do 100t-60t because they both have (t)= 40t
40t=240 *now divide 240 by 40= 6
THEN do:
D= 100mph x 6= 600mi
They will meet 600 mi from the station
to check:
d-240=60t x 6
600-240= 360
60 x 6= 360
360=360
4x + 3 + x - 2 +4x +3 +x - 2
5x + 1 + 4x + 3 + x - 2
5x + 1 + 5x + 1
10x + 2
We notice a factor of 2x in both
2x(5x^2+4x-3)
trial and error
(5x-3)(x+1) yeilds 5x^2+2x-3, nope
(5x+3)(x-1) yeilds 5x^2-2x-3, nope
(5x-1)(x+3) yeilds 5x^2+14x-3, nope
(5x+1)(x-3) yeilds 5x^2-14x-3, nope
simplest form is
2x(5x^2+4x-3)
