Mathematics

atroni [7]2 years ago

Get it to equal 0

minus 17x from both sides

2x²-17x+35=0

tricky part
get something like
(2x-a)(x-b)
we know the signs  are negative since the middle term is negative and last term is positive

so a and b are either 1 and 35 or 5 and 7

(2x-1)(x-35), nope
(2x-35)(x-1) nope
(2x-5)(x-7), nope
(2x-7)(x-5), yep

(2x-7)(x-5)=0
set to zero
2x-7=0
2x=7
x=7/2

x-5=0
x=5


x=7/2 and 5

D=sqrt[(x1-x2)^2+(y2-y1)^2]
(0,10) x1=0 y1=10 and (-9,1) x2=-9 y2=1
now d=sqrt[(-9-0)^2+(1-10)^2]=12.72792206 units

Help
kykrilka [37]

Let n =  the hours elapsed when the two trains are 660 miles apart.


Let the first train travel east and the second train travel west.

The distance traveled by the first train is

x = (50 mi/h)*(n h) = 50n mi


The distance traveled by the second train is

y = (60 mi/h)*(n h) = 60n h


The distance between the two trains after n hours is

x + y = 50 n + 60n = 110n mi


Because this distance is 660 miles, therefore

110n = 660

n = 6 hours


Answer: 6 hours
