Answer:
(x-5) & (x+1)
Step-by-step explanation:
8-3x=17 substract 8
-8 -8
-3x=17-8
-3x=9 divide by -3
/-3 /-3
x=9/-3
x=-3 Solved for x
Answer:
x = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
√(2x − 1) + 2 = x
√(2x − 1) = x − 2
2x − 1 = (x − 2)²
2x − 1 = x² − 4x + 4
0 = x² − 6x + 5
0 = (x − 1) (x − 5)
x = 1 or 5
Check for extraneous solutions.
√(2(1) − 1) + 2 = 1
√(1) + 2 = 1
3 = 1
No solution
√(2(5) − 1) + 2 = 5
√(9) + 2 = 5
5 = 5
x = 5
Answer:
a. Speed of flight * ( total spent away from hive - time stayed on flower bed)
b. The flower bed is 2,400 ft from the hive
Step-by-step explanation:
a. Mathematically, the distance will be ;
the speed * time taken
Given that he stays a total of 17 minutes away from the hive and he stayed 15 minutes in the flower bed, the time it used on the flower bed will be 17 minutes - 15 minutes = 2 minutes
So the distance from the flower bed to the hive is;
Speed of flight * ( total spent away from hive - time stayed on flower bed)
b. We want to find the distance of the flower bed from the hive
That will be;
20 ft per second * 2 minutes (120 seconds)
= 20 * 120 = 2,400 ft
