Answer:

57.78 km/hr

Step-by-step explanation:

Total time taken, t = 6 hours

Total distance covered, d = 520 km

Distance by car = 260

Distance by train = 520 - 260 = 260 km

Train speed = x

Car speed = 2x

Average speed speed = 3x /2

Speed = distance / time

1.5x = 520 / 6

9x = 520

x = 520 / 9

x = 57.777

Average speed of train = 57.78 km/hr

Let

P=(P_x,P_y),\quad Q=(Q_x,Q_y)

If M is the midpoint, the x and y coordinates of M are the average of the x and y coordinates of P and Q:

M=\left(\dfrac{P_x+Q_x}{2},\ \dfrac{P_y+Q_y}{2}\right)

We can solve this expression for the coordinates of Q:

M_x = \dfrac{P_x+Q_x}{2} \implies Q_x = 2M_x-P_x

M_y = \dfrac{P_y+Q_y}{2} \implies Q_y = 2M_y-P_y

Plug in the values for the coordinates of M and P to get

Q_x = 2M_x-P_x = 2\cdot 5-11 = 10-11=-1

Q_y = 2M_y-P_y = 2\cdot (-2) - (-10) = -4+10=6

What is the solution of the inequality x^3+3x^2&gt;7x+6
sveta [45]

Answer:

<u><em>x>2</em></u>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>x3+3x2=7x+6</em></u>

<u><em>x3+3x2−(7x+6)=7x+6−(7x+6)</em></u>

<u><em>x3+3x2−7x−6=0</em></u>

<u><em>(x−2)(x2+5x+3)=0</em></u>

<u><em>x−2=0 or x2+5x+3=0</em></u>

<u><em>x=2 or x=−0.6972243622680054 or x=−4.302775637731995</em></u>

<u><em>x<−4.302776</em></u>

<u><em>−4.302776<x<−0.697224</em></u>

<u><em>−0.697224<x<2</em></u>

<u><em>x>2(Works in original inequality)</em></u>
