Answer:

x = 3 ±sqrt(6)

Step-by-step explanation:

6(x-3)^2-26 = 10

Add 26 to each side

6(x-3)^2-26+26 = 10+26

6(x-3)^2 = 36

Divide by 6

6/6(x-3)^2 = 36/6

(x-3)^2 = 6

Take the square root of each side

sqrt((x-3)^2) = ±sqrt(6)

x-3 = ±sqrt(6)

Add 3 to each side

x-3+3 =3 ±sqrt(6)

x = 3 ±sqrt(6)

The function d(s) = 0.0056s squared + 0.14s models the stopping distance

victus00 [196]

Answer:

The car must have a speed of 25 kilometres per hour to stop after moving 7 metres.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let be $d(s) = 0.0056\cdot s^{2} + 0.14\cdot s$ , where $d$ is the stopping distance measured in metres and $s$ is the speed measured in kilometres per hour. The second-order polynomial is drawn with the help of a graphing tool and whose outcome is presented below as attachment.

The procedure to find the speed related to the given stopping distance is described below:

1) Construct the graph of $d(s)$ .

2) Add the function $d = 7\,m$ .

3) The point of intersection between both curves contains the speed related to given stopping distance.

In consequence, the car must have a speed of 25 kilometres per hour to stop after moving 7 metres.

Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

16 hours and 20 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Please consider the complete question.

Rita's family is moving to Grand Junction to Dallas, which is 980 miles. The moving van averages 60 miles each hour. About how many hours does the van take to reach Dallas?

To find the time taken by van to reach Dallas, we will divide total distance by speed.

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