Answer:

48.5 and 60.5 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Given distance between A and B is 364 miles

Let they meet after y and 364 - y miles.

And, Let speed of one car is x then speed of other car will be (x + 12) mph

Also time after they meet is 3 hours and 15 minutes = 13 ÷ 4 hours.

Using the distance- time formula,

We get equation:

\frac{13}{4}=\frac{364-y}{x+15} \\and, \frac{13}{4}=\frac{y}{x}

Thus, After simplifying we get,

13x + 4y = 1261

and, 13x - 4y = 0

Solving we get the value of x = 48.5

Thus, the Speed is 48.5 and 60.5 mph

Find the term that must be added to the equation x2−6x=7 to make it into a perfect square.
Gekata [30.6K]

x²-6x =7

First we have get rid of that 7 from the right side and move it to the left side. To move 7 to the left side, we have to subtract 7 from both sides.

x²-6x-7= 7-7

x²-6x-7 = 0

To make this equation a perfect square, first we have to check the x term. Here -6x given. We have to divide the co-efficient of x by 2, and then we have to add the square of it.

The co-efficient of x is -6 here. Dividing it by 2, we will get -6/2 = -3.

We will have to add (-3)² here. (-3)² is 9. So in the place of -7, we have to make 9, to make the equation a perfect square.

9-(-7) = 9+7 = 16

So by adding 16 to the left side, we can make the equation a perfect square.

x²-6x-7+16 =0

x²-6x+9 =0

x²-6x+(-3)² =0

(x-3)² =0

Choose the equation that matches the story. Then choose the correct solution.
o-na [289]

Answer:

The temperature at midnight would be 12 degrees cause -7 +7+7+ 5=12 and the equation for that would be -7+7+7+5= x

Hope that helps!
