Answer:

Liam's rate = 3 meters per second

Edgar's rate = 3.2 meters per second

Edgar swims faster

Step-by-step explanation:

Liam:

The equation $d=3t$ gives the distance, d, in meters that Liam swims with respect to time, t, in seconds.

When $t=0,\ d=0.$

When $t=1,\ d=3.$

Rate of change:

$\dfrac{3-0}{1-0}=3$

Liam's rate is 3 metres per second.

Edgar:

When $t=20, \ d=64.$

When $t=40,\ t=128.$

Rate of change:

$\dfrac{128-64}{40-20}=\dfrac{64}{20}=3.2$

Edgar's rate is 3.2 metres per second.

Edgar swims faster.

How would you write 2x^2-7=11 in both quadratic property and square root property?

dangina [55]

Answer:

Quadratic Property 2x^2-18=0

Square Root Property x=√9 or x=+3 or x=-3

Step-by-step explanation:

Quadratic Property or a quadratic Function is of the form ax^2+bx+c=0. So our task is to equate the given expression to zero. We can equate the expression to zero by subtracting 11 on both the sides. In doing so, we get 2x^2-18=0. This is the quadratic Property of the given Expression.

Square property is finding the value for x. we have make x equal to some value. Since we already have the quadratic Property as 2x^2-18=0, we can use this to find the value of x.

so, 2x^2=18

or x^2=18/2=9

or x=√9= +3 or -3.
