Consider the two functions as
<span>y1(x) =3x^2 - 5x,
y2(x) = 2x^2 - x - c
The higher the value of c, father apart the two equations will be.
They will touch when the difference, i.e. y1(x)-y2(x)=x^2-4*x+c has a discriminant of 0.
This happens when D=((-4)^2-4c)=0, or when c=4.
(a)
So when c=4, the two equations will barely touch, giving a single solution, or coincident roots.
(b)
when c is greater than 4, the two curves are farther apart, thus there will be no (real) solution.
(c)
when c<4, then the two curves will cross at more than one location, giving two distinct solutions.
It will be more obvious if you plot the two curves in a graphics calculator using c=3,4, and 5.

Answer:
446mm
Step-by-step explanation:
If we box off parts of the area, it makes it easier to solve. I personally broke it into tiny bits:
Upper left box: 16mm
Bigger box (excluding little box): 90mm
Big rectangle: 340mm
Now, add them all together.
Equals 446mm
Answer: 50.2 liters
Step-by-step explanation:
11 liters = 50km
Z liters = 228km
To get the value of Z, cross multiply
228 x 11 = Z x 50
2508 = 50z
Divide both sides by 50
2508/50 = 50z/50
50.16 = z
50.16 has two decimal places, so convert to 1 decimal place by approximation
50.16 = 50.2
Thus, 50.2 liters will be enough for 228km
