Answer:

  -5/4 +i(√2)/4 and -5/4 -i(√2)/4

Step-by-step explanation:

I find simplest form to be easier to get to if the leading coefficient is 1. Dividing by 16, we have ...

  x^2 +5/2x +27/16 = 0

Completing the square by adding and subtracting the square of half the x-coefficient, we get ...

  (x^2 +5/2x +25/16) +27/16 -25/16 = 0

  (x +5/4)^2 = 2/16

Subtracting 2/16, taking the square root, and subtracting 5/4 gives ...

  x +5/4 = ±√(-2/16)

  x = -5/4 ±i(√2)/4

The roots are -5/4 +i(√2)/4 and -5/4 -i(√2)/4.

If Andrew were to rest, he would not be moving (walking).  During such a period, the beginning distance would be the same as the ending distance.

In this graph there are two such time intervals:  BC and DE.  Notice how the graph is 'flat' on each; this 'flat' graph indicates a speed of zero.

Which line has a slope of 1/2 and goes through the point (2,4)?
Pani-rosa [81]
The line equation for its slope and one point is:
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
m is the slope, x1, y1 are the point coordinates, so lets substitute:
y - 4 = (1/2)(x - 2)
y = <span>(1/2)x + 3</span>
