(x + 5)(x - 4)(x + 2) =

(x + 5) ({x}^{2}  - 2x - 8) =

{x}^{3}  - 2 {x}^{2}  - 8x + 5 {x}^{2}  - 10x - 40 =  \\

{x}^{3}  + 3 {x}^{2}  - 18x - 40

_________________________________

Compare :

{x}^{3}  + 3 {x}^{2}  - 18x - 40

{x}^{3}  + a {x}^{2}  - 18x + b

Thus :

a = 3

and

b =  - 40

An airline runs a commuter flight between Portland, Oregon, and Seattle, Washington, which are 145 miles apart. An increase of 2
pychu [463]

The speed of the airplane is the ratio of the distance to the time

The initial average speed of the airplane is approximately 110.8 mph

Reason:

Given parameters are;

The distance between Portland Oregon and Seattle Washington = 145 miles

The decrease in travel time when the speed is increase by 20 mph =  minutes

The initial speed of the airplane, v = Required;

Solution;

t = \dfrac{145}{v}

t - \dfrac{12}{60}  = \dfrac{145}{v + 20}

Therefore;

\dfrac{145}{v} - \dfrac{12}{60}  = \dfrac{145}{v + 20}

Which gives;

\dfrac{145}{v + 20} - \dfrac{145}{v} + \dfrac{12}{60} = 0

Therefore

0.2·v² + 4·v - 2,900 = 0

v ≈ ±110.8 mph

The initial average speed of the airplane, v≈ ± 110.8 mph

Solve the problem making a chart. A Roman statue is three times as old as Florentine statue. One hundred years from now the Roma
Paraphin [41]

Answer:  300 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the age of Florentine statue,

Thus, According to the question,

The age of Roman statue = 3 x

After 100 years, the age of Florentine statue = x + 100

And, the age of Roman statue = 3x + 100

Again according to the question,

3x + 100 = 2( x + 100)

3x + 100 = 2x + 200

3x - 2 x = 200 - 100

x = 100

Therefore,  the present age of Roman statue = 3 × 100 = 300 years
