Ooh, quadratic equations!
alright, you see that zero at the end right?
that means you are trying to find the two factors
I'll write out the equation on paper to show you

take note of the signs in b and c
(ax²+bx+c)
because 5x is a negative (-5x), when you factor it out, the two, when multiplied together, should be negative. and because 30 is negative, the numbers will have two different signs. in other words, one will be positive and one will be negative.
now that that's cleared, we need to find all of the multiples of 30
there is:
30×1
15×2
10×3
and 6×5
of all of them, 10 and 3 would give you the -5 needed in -5× since one of them are going to be multiplied times 5
now let's factor it:
(5x+10)(x-3)
finally, divide everything
I wrote everything down for you to see

So you multiply both 5x then it would be 10x^2-30=0 then you square root 10x and you do the same for 2, so 2 would be 1.4… and 10x would be 3.16… then it’s 3.16-30=0 then you add 3.16 to both sides 3.16 plus 30 and 30 plus 3.16. The answer will be 33.16.

Two cars leave a town at the same time heading in opposite directions. One car is traveling 12 mph faster than the other. After
HACTEHA [7]
D = rt.  The first car's rate is r, and the other one, going faster, is r + 12.  The time they travel is 2 hours.  Since one is going faster than the other, he has gotten farther.  But, regardless of that, the distance between them is 232.  So the distance the first one travels, r*t, which 2r, plus the distance the second one travels, 2(r+12) = 232.  2r + 2r + 24 = 232.  Solve for r.  4r = 208 and r = 52.  The slower one goes 52 and the faster one goes 64

What is 347,168 round to then thoudands
Finger [1]

Answer:

347,168 rounded to the nearest ten thousands would be 350,000.

Step-by-step explanation:

When rounding to the nearest ten thousands, you rely on the thousands place value to indicate whether to round up or down. 5 or higher give it a shove, 4 or less let it rest. 7 is in the thousands place meaning we round up. 4 is in the ten thousands place meaning it becomes 5. 347,168 rounded to the nearest ten thousands would be 350,000.
