Answer

given,

on first stop

number of car = 20  and number of trucks = 18

on second stop

number of car = 18  and number of trucks = 10

we need to calculate which rest stop has higher ratio of car to truck.

Rest Stop 1

ratio= r₁ =\dfrac{cars}{trucks}

           r₁ =\dfrac{20}{18}

           r₁ =\dfrac{10}{9}

Rest Stop 2

ratio= r₂ =\dfrac{cars}{trucks}

           r₂ =\dfrac{18}{10}

           r₂=\dfrac{9}{5}

hence, r₂ > r₁

rest stop 2 has more car to truck ratio than rest stop 1

Find the product and sum of the roots of the equation:<br> 2x^2-9x-10=0
BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

<h3>           sum of the roots:    x_1+x_2=4\frac12</h3><h3>           product of the roots:     x_1x_2=-5             </h3><h3> Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

2x^2-9x-10=0\quad\implies\quad a=2\,,\ b=-9\,,\ c=-10

b^2-4ac=(-9)^2-4(2)(-10)=81+80=161>0

From Vieta's formulas applied to quadratic polynomial we have:

if    b^2-4ac\geqslant0   then

sum of roots:    x_1+x_2=-\dfrac ba=-\dfrac{-9}2=4\frac12

product of the roots:     x_1x_2=\dfrac ca=\dfrac{-10}2=-5
