Answer:
4x^2 + 4x + 1=9
4x^2 + 4x - 8=0
Dividing both sides by 4
x^2 + x -2=0
It can be written as
x^2 + 2x - x - 2=0
x(x+2) -1(x+2)=0
taking (x+2) as common on LHS
Then, (x+2)(x-1)=0
Now first equate x+2=0 ie x=-2
then x-1=0 ie x=1
Therefore, x has two values(roots)
that is -2,1

The slope is the rate
words per minute
we can do
540 words in 3 minutes
divide by 3
180 words in 1 minute
thea=180wpm
elanor=225wpm
elanor>thea
and 225*2=450
answers are
Thea reads 180 words per minute.
Eleanor reads 450 words every 2 minutes.
After 1 hour of reading, Eleanor reads more words than Thea.
