Solve for x.
Masteriza [31]

Answer:

x = 2.5 or -0.8

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we are to use completing the square method to solve for the values of x

Firstly, we divide through by 4

= x^2 -7/4x -2 = 0

Now, we move the two term to the right hand side

x^2 -7/4x = 2

Now, we divide the coefficient of x by 2 and square it;

That would be;

(-7/4 * 1/2)^2 = 49/64

we now add this value to both sides of the equation

x^2 -7/4x + 49/64 = 2 + 49/64

The right hand side can be rewritten as;

(x-7/8)^2 = 177/64

taking the square root of both sides

x-7/8 = √(177/64)

x = 7/8 ± √(177/64)

x = 7/8 + √(177/74) or 7/8 - √(177/64)

= x = 2.53802 or -0.788017

Which to the nearest tenth is

x = 2.5 or -0.8

Asanji left the science museum and drove toward the lake at an average speed of 45 km/h. Sometime later Huong left driving in th
Cloud [144]

Answer:

Asanji drove for 5 hours before Huong caught up

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the time for which Asanji drove alone is "X" hours

Asanji and Huong met after three hours of driving of Huong.

Total time for which Asanji drove = X+3 hours

Thus, distance travelled by Asanji in X+3 hours is equal to distance travelled by Huong in 3 hours

45 ( X+3) = 75 (3)\\

On solving the above equation, we get -

45 X + (45 *3) = 75 *3\\45 X = (75-45)*3\\45 X = 30 *3 \\X = \frac{30 *3}{45} \\X = 2

Asanji drove for 3 + 2 = 5 hours before Huong caught up
