Answer: Stanley's average speed is 28 mph.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent Stanley's average speed.

Daniel's average speed is 11 mph slower than Stanley's. This means that Daniel's average speed is

(x - 11) mph.

Distance = speed × time

At the end of one hour, they are 45 miles apart. Distance covered by Stanley after 1 hour would be

x × 1 = x miles

Distance covered by Daniel after 1 hour would be

1 × (x - 11) = (x - 11) miles.

Since the total distance covered is 45 miles, then

x + x - 11 = 45

2x = 45 + 11

2x = 56

x = 56/2

x = 28 mph

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 - 22x = 10

Next step is to complete the square on the left hand side of the equation and it would be balanced by adding the same number to the right side of the equation. It becomes

x^2 - 22x + (22/2)^2 = 10 + (22/2)^2

x^2 - 22x + (11)^2 = 10 + (11)^2

x^2 - 22x + (11)^2 = 10 + 121

x^2 - 22x + (11)^2 = 131

x^2 - 22x + 121^2 = 131

(x - 11)^2 = 131

Taking square root of both the left hand side and the right hand side of the equation, it becomes

x - 11 = ±√131

x - 11 = ±11.45

Adding 11 to the left hand side and the right hand side of the equation, it becomes

x - 11 + 11 = ±11.45 + 11

x = 11.45 + 11 or x = -11.45 + 11

x = 22.45 or x = - 0.45
