Dividing by a fraction is equivalent to multiply by its reciprocal, then:
Now, we need to express the quadratic polynomials using their roots, as follows:
where y1 and y2 are the roots.
Applying the quadratic formula to the first polynomial:

Substituting into the rational expression and simplifying:
Answer:
The distance between the art gallery and the office supply store is 42 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Notice that the segment that joins the office store with the art gallery, has a length that equal the distance between the art gallery and the bank, plus the distance between the bank and the office supply store. That is;
32.1 mi + 9.9 mi = 42 mi
Answer:
RC = 40
Step-by-step explanation:
Note that the circumcentre is equally distant from the triangle's 3 vertices.
That is : PC = RC = QC
Equate any pair and solve for x
Using RC = PC, then
5x - 15 = 3x + 7 ( subtract 3x from both sides )
2x - 15 = 7 ( add 15 to both sides )
2x = 22 ( divide both sides by 2 )
x = 11
Hence
RC = (5 × 11) - 15 = 55 - 15 = 40 units

- Solving systems of equations using substitution/elimination
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define Systems</u>
4x + 5y = -12
-2x + 3y = -16
<u>Step 2: Rewrite Systems</u>
-2x + 3y = -16
- Multiply everything by 2: -4x + 6y = -32
<u>Step 3: Redefine Systems</u>
4x + 5y = -12
-4x + 6y = -32
<u>Step 4: Solve for </u><em><u>y</u></em>
<em>Elimination</em>
- Combine 2 equations: 11y = -44
- Divide 17 on both sides: y = -4
