Answer: 16 litres
Step-by-step explanation:
A: 1l x km
B: 1l x+5 km
Running 400 km A used 400/x litres
Running 400 km B used 400/(x+5) litres
400/x- 400/(x+5)= 4
400*(x+5)- x*400-4*x*(x+5)=0
400*x+2000-400*x-4*x²-20*x=0
2000-4*x²-20*x=0 difide by 4 both sides of equation
500-x²-5*x=0
Lets solve the equation using discriminant:
D=5²-(-1)*4*500=2025
sqrt(D)=45
x1= (5+45)/(-2)= -25 x2=(5-45)/(-2)=20
x1=-25 x2=20
x1<0 so is not the solution of the problem ( number of litres can't be negative)
So A uses litr per x=20 km and B uses 1 litr per 20+5=25 km
Running 400 km B uses 400/25=16 litres
Answer C. People are born into their positions.
Step-by-step explanation:
Being king gets passed down, and so does being an aristocrat.
Have a great day!!
Perimeter = namely the length of outside bordering,
well, this is a PENTAgon, or PENTA=5 or namely 5 sides, is regular so each side is the same length, so we have a polygon with 5 sides each measuring 40cm, well, its perimeter is just 40+40+40+40+40 = 200.
