Answer:
12%
Step-by-step explanation:
They would each get 6 dollars and 66 cents :) ♥♥
Total hours of hiking is 15.12 miles
Time taken is 6.3 hours
The number of miles hiked per hour would be
Total hours ÷ time taken
=2.4 miles
So Megan has hiked 2.4 miles every hour
The value of x is 1170.15 because first you add 137.45 from both sides of the equation, then your new equation should be 1/3x=390.05. After that you use the keep change flip method to help you divide 390.05 by 1/3 which will be 390.05 times 3 divided by 1 and your final answer should be x=1170.15 or 1170.15
I believe you need to solve this using the quadratic formula!
To begin, this is what it is:
x= -b ± <span>√ b^2 - 4ac / 2a
Just plug in what you have in your problem...
2 being a, 13 being b, and -24 being c.
So we get:
x= -13 </span>± <span>√13^2 - 4(2)(-24) / 2(2)
x= -13 </span><span>± √169 - 8 (-24) / 4</span>
<span>x= -13 <span>± √169 + 192 / 4</span>
x= -13 </span>± √<span>361 / 4
The square root of 361 is 19.
So you have: -13 </span><span>± 19 / 4.
Here's where you take the equation </span>-13 <span>± 19 and put the addition and subtraction sign to use.
-13 - 19 = -32
and
-13 + 19 = 6
Now all is left to do is divide the two numbers by 4.
-32/4 = -8
and
6/4 = 3/2
x = -8, 3/2</span>
