Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say that the time it took him to get to work in the morning is  t hours. Then the time it took him to get home in the afternoon must be 1 - t hours. We know that for any trip, distance equals rate times time or d = rt . That means that the distance he drove to work is given by , but we also know that the distance he drove to get home must be the same distance, because he took the same route (and, presumably, no one picked up him house and moved it while he was at work) so for the trip home we can say  d = 30 × (1 - t) and since the distances are equal, we can say: 

45t = 30 × (1 - t)

45t = 30 - 30t

45t + 30t = 30

75t = 30

t = 30/75

t = 2 /5 hour to drive to work at 45mph

Since ,  d = rt

d = 45 ×(2/5) = 18miles

For problems 29 - 31 the graph of a quadratic function y=ax^2 + bx + c is shown. Tell whether the discriminant of ax^2 + bx + c
Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

29) discriminant  is positive

30) discriminant  is 0

31) discriminant  is negative

Step-by-step explanation:

the graph of a quadratic function y=ax^2 + bx + c is shown. Tell whether the discriminant of ax^2 + bx + c = 0 is positive, negative, or zero.

In the graph of question number 29 we can see that the graph intersects the x axis at two points

so the equation has 2 solutions.

When the equation has two solution then the discriminant is positive

In the graph of question number 30 we can see that the graph intersects the x axis at only one point

so the equation has only  1 solution.

When the equation has only one solution then the discriminant is equal to 0

In the graph of question number 30 we can see that the graph does not intersects the x axis  

so the equation has 2 imaginary solutions.

When the equation has two imaginary solutions then the discriminant is negative
