BODMAS is the shortened way of telling the order

Bracket

Division

Multiplication

Addition

Subtraction

Therefore addition should be done first

PEMDAS has addition before subtraction there for you would do 5+8=13 then 17-13 which equals 4

To find z, you have to divide -3 and 10, which you would get an odd number. That will be your answer for z :)

A boat traveled 54 km with the stream and 42 km against the stream spending a total of as much time as it would spend while trav

Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

24 km/h

Step-by-step explanation:

The speed of the boat in the lake = x
The speed of the current = 3 km/h

<u>Required equation:</u>

54 / (x + 3) + 42 / (x - 3) = 96/x
9x(x - 3) + 7x(x + 3) = 16(x + 3)(x - 3)
9x² - 27x + 7x² + 21x = 16x² - 144
6x = 144
x = 144/6
x = 24 km/h

Use the quadratic formula to solve 9x2 + 6x – 17 = 0. A. B. x = –1, –5 C. D.

Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

$x_{1} = -\frac{1}{3} +\sqrt{2} ; x_{2} = -\frac{1}{3}-\sqrt{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

9x² + 6x – 17 = 0

Apply the quadratic formula

$x = \frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$

a = 9; b = 6; y = -17

$x = \frac{-6\pm\sqrt{6^2 - 4\times 9 \times(-17)}}{2\times 9}$

$x = \frac{-6\pm\sqrt{36+36\times17}}{18}$

$x = \frac{-6\pm\sqrt{36(1+17)}}{18}$

$x = \frac{-6\pm 6 \sqrt{18}}{18}$

$x = \frac{-1\pm \sqrt{9\times2}}{3}$

$x = \frac{-1\pm 3\sqrt{2}}{3}$

$x_{1} = -\frac{1}{3} +\sqrt{2} ; x_{2} = -\frac{1}{3}-\sqrt{2}$

The graph below shows the roots at x₁ =1.081 and x₂ = -1.748.
