Macro can finish the puzzle in 3 hours. We can say that her speed for working is 1/3 or 1/3 puzzle per hour.

Now if they work together, this turns into 1 puzzle per hour.

That must mean that Cliff would be doing the other 2/3 of the puzzle while Macro does his 1/3 in that hour. If Cliff has a speed of doing them 2/3 per hour. Then it would take 1 and a half hour to finish 1 whole puzzle.

A car travels 360 miles in a period of 180 minutes. Find the average velocity of the car in miles per hour over this time period

Serggg [28]

The simple formula for velocity is v=d/t. Velocity equals distance divided by time. 360 miles divided by 180 minutes. 360/180=2. The car travels at 2 miles per MINUTE.

Now, to change to miles per HOUR. There are 60 minutes in an hour, so 2*60=120 miles per hour.

What are the solutions of the quadratic equation (x + 3)(x +3) = 49? Ax = -2 and x = -16 Bx = 2 and x = -10 Cx = 4 and x = -10 D

Ivahew [28]

Answer:

4 and -10

Step-by-step explanation:

$\displaystyle (x + 3)(x +3) = 49 \\ x^2+3x+3x+9=49 \\ x^2 +6x+9=49 \\ x^2 + 6x + 9 - 49 = 0 \\x^2+6x-40=0 \\\\ \Delta=b^2-4ac \\ \Delta=6^2-4 \cdot 1 \cdot (-40) \\ \Delta=36+160 \\ \Delta=196 \\ \\ X_{1,2}=\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{\Delta} }{2a} \\ \\ X_1=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta} }{2a} = \frac{-6+14}{2} = \frac{8}{2}=4 \\ \\ X_2=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta} }{2a} = \frac{-6-14}{2}=\frac{-20}{2} = -10$
