Answer: 0.15 is equivalent to 3/20
Answer:
1.4 hour, or 1 hr 24 min
Step-by-step explanation:
The trains separate at the rate (80 + 90) mph.
Recall that distance = rate times time, or time = distance / rate.
238 mi
Here, the elapsed time is -------------- = 1.4 hr, or 1 hr 24 min
170 mph
Answer:
C x=6
Step-by-step explanation:
sqrt(x+3) = x-3
Square each side
(sqrt(x+3))^2 = (x-3)^2
x+3 = (x-3)^2
x+3 = (x-3)(x-3)
FOIL
x+3 = x^2 -3x-3x+9
Combine like terms
x+3 = x^2 -6x+9
Subtract x from each side
x-x+3 = x^2 -6x-x +9
3 = x^2 -7x +9
Subtract 3 from each side
3-3 = x^2 -7x +9-3
0 = x^2 -7x+6
Factor
0 = (x-6)(x-1)
Using the zero product property
x-6=0 x-1 =0
x=6 x=1
Since we squared we need to check for extraneous solutions
x=1
sqrt(1+3) = 1-3
sqrt(4) = -2
2=-2
False
Extraneous
x=6
sqrt(6+3) = 6-3
sqrt(9) = 3
3=3
True solutions
A. True, a mode would not exist and be considered irrelevant.
