Answer:

16 and 18

Step-by-step explanation:

(n + 2)² - n² = 68

Expand

(n² + 4n + 4) - n² = 68

4n + 4 = 68

Subtract 4 from both sides

4n = 64

Divide both sides by 4

n = 16

n + 2 = 18

Answer:

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

(2x+2)² - (2x)² = 44

4x^2 + 8x + 4 -  4x^2 = 44

8x + 4 = 44

8x = 44 - 4

8x = 40

x = 40/8

x = 5

If speed varies inversely as the time it takes to drive and Kris takes 5 hours driving at 55 mph, what speed will Martin need to
Fudgin [204]

Answer:

<em>55mph . None of the options are correct </em>

Step-by-step explanation:

If the speed varies inversely as the time it takes to drive, then v ∝ 1/t. where;

v is the speed

t is the time taken

Hence;

v = k/t with k being the constant of proportionality.

Since it takes Kris 5 hours when driving at 55 mph, we will substitute v = 55mph and t = 5 hours. into the equation above to get the value of k as shown:

55 = k/5

Cross multiply

k = 55*5

k = 275

Hence, to calculate the speed it will Martin to  drive for 5 hours, we will substitute k = 275 and t = 5 into the original equation v = k/t  as shownl

v = 275/5

v = 55 mph

<em>Hence, we can conclude that Martin will also need to drive at a speed of 55mph if he wants to take 5hours.</em>
