Answer:
c - a = 
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the parabolas intersect we can equate them, that is
2x² - 1 = - x² - x + 1 ← subtract terms on right side from terms on left side
3x² + x - 2 = 0
Consider the factors of the coefficient of the x² term and the constant term which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term.
product = 3 × - 2 = - 6 and sum = + 1
The factors are + 3 and - 2
Use these factors to split the x- term
3x² + 3x - 2x - 2 = 0 ( factor the first/second and third/fourth terms )
3x(x + 1) - 2(x + 1) = 0 ← factor out (x + 1) from each term
(x + 1)(3x - 2) = 0
Equate each factor to zero and solve for x
x + 1 = 0 ⇒ x = - 1
3x - 2 = 0 ⇒ 3x = 2 ⇒ x = 
Since c > a, then
a = - 1 and c = 
Thus
c - a =
- (- 1) =
+ 1 =

Answer: 1306.5 m^3
Step-by-step explanation:
1. The formula for the volume of a cylinder is: V=
r^2h
2. If you substitute the values into the equation, you get
V = pi * 5.7^2 * 12.8 = 1306.5
3. 1306.5 is already to the nearest tenth, so that is the answer.
The answer to the problem is 8 2/3.

If he bikes for 10 miles per hour and 8 miles per hour for the same distance x miles, he went 10 miles per hour for x/10 hours, as Distance = Rate*Time and on the way back he would go for x/8 hours. So then he went 2x distance, in x/8 + x/10 hours. Since x/8 + x/10 = 10x/80 + 8x/80 = 18x/80 = 9x/40, he went 2x miles in 9x/40 hours. this can be converted into a rate with the above equation Distance = Rate*Time, so 2x=(9x/40) * Rate, thus we divide by 9x/40 on both sides to get 80x/9x = Rate, the x cancels out, and we get 80/9 Miles per hour.
