4+2x = x (x = student in smaller group)

4 + 2x + x = 28 (total # of students)
4+ 3x = 28
3x = 24
x = 8
8 students in the smaller group
4 + 2(8) = 20 students in the larger group

WHO RUNS THE FASTEST? HELP

Vlada [557]

Answer:

Jessica runs the fastest

Step-by-step explanation:

If you divide all of the lengths they ran by the time it took them to run in seconds, you find how much feet they run each second and Jessica ran the most feet in the least amount of time which means she runs the fastest.

Help please!! i don’t understand this one!

12345 [234]

Answer:

C, D

Step-by-step explanation:

This equation can be solved any of several ways. One that doesn't require much thought is using the quadratic formula.

For ax² +bx +c = 0, the solutions are ...

$x=\dfrac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$

In the given equation, a=2, b=11, c=5, so this becomes ...

$x=\dfrac{-11\pm\sqrt{11^2-4\cdot2\cdot5}}{2\cdot2}=\dfrac{-11\pm\sqrt{81}}{4}\\\\x=\dfrac{-11\pm9}{4}=\left\{-\dfrac{20}{4},-\dfrac{2}{4}\right\}=\{-5,-\frac{1}{2}\}$

The solutions are ...

C. x = -5

D. x = -1/2

_____

My personal favorite is using a graphing calculator. The solutions are the x-intercepts of the expression on the left. That is, where its value is zero, as the equation says.
