This must be true for some value of x, since we have a quantity squared yielding a positive number, and since the equation is of second degree,there must exist 2 real roots.

$\sqrt{(x - 4) {}^{2} } = ± \sqrt{36} \\x - 4 = ±6 \\ x _{1}- 4 = 6 \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: x _{2}- 4 = - 6 \\ x_{1} = 6 + 4 \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: x_{2} = - 6 + 4 \\ x_{1} = 10 \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: x_{2} = - 2$

Well he started off correct to the point of completing the square.

$(x - 3) {}^{2} = 16 \\ x - 3 = ±4 \\ \: x_{1} - 3 = 4 \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: x_{2} - 3 = - 4 \\ x_{1} = 7 \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: x_{2} = - 1$

Taylor walks 7 miles in 2 hours. At what unite rate dose Taylor walk

IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Unit rate means that the denominator of the units has to be 1: units have to be miles/1 hour

Thus divide miles by hours to get the unit rate. The answer would then be 7/2 miles/1 hour
