What is the two perfect squares that 3 falls in between

Roger and Rita each drive at a constant speed between Phoenix and San Diego. Each driver’s distance for the same section of the trip is displayed below. Who had a head start, and how many miles was the head start?

A) Rita had a 28-mile head start.

B) Roger had a 26-mile head start.

C) Roger had a 25-mile head start.

D) Rita had a 22-mile head start.

Answer:

A) Rita had a 28-mile head start.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's assume that Roger travelled a distance of 60 miles

And that;

Rita travelled a distance of 32 miles

We are told that they travelled between Phoenix and San Diego.

Thus, it means that if they have different distances but covered same section of the trip, it means the one with higher distance started before the section of the trip.

Thus, it means that Rita had a head start of Roger since she covered only 32 miles.

Thus;

Rita had a head start of; 60 - 32 = 28 miles

Show all work to solve 3x^2 + 5x − 2 = 0

Ratling [72]

Answer:

x=1/3 or x=−2

if i can be brainliest that would be great

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Add 2 to both sides.

3x^2+5x−2+2=0+2

3x^2+5x=2

Step 2: Since the coefficient of 3x^2 is 3, divide both sides by 3.

3x^2+5x/3=2/3

x^2+5/3x=2/3

Step 3: The coefficient of 5/3x is 5/3. Let b=5/3.

Then we need to add (b/2)^2=25/36 to both sides to complete the square.

Add 25/36 to both sides.

x^2+5/3x+25/36=2/3+25/36

x^2+5/3x+25/36=49/36

Step 4: Factor left side.

(x+5/6)^2=49/36

Step 5: Take square root.

x+5/6=±√49/36

Step 6: Add (-5)/6 to both sides.

x+5/6+ −5/6=

−5/6±√49/36x=−5/6±√49/36x=

1/3 or x=−2

When performing a horizontal analysis on an income statement, the percentage change in any individual item is calculated by div

oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer: C. the base period amount.

Explanation: While implementing a horizontal analysis on a given income statement, we compute a percentage change in any individual item by dividing the dollar amount of change from base to current time period with the base period amount.

i.e. % Change in Individual item = $\frac{Current\ Dollar\ - Base\ Dollar }{Base \ period \ amount}$

Therefore, the correct option in this case is (c)
