two buses leave towns 604 mi apart at the same time and travel toward eachother. One bus travels 9 mi/h faster than the other on

muminat

Answer:

s = 71 mph, and s+9 = f = 80 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

The distances the two busses travel add up to 604 mi.

Letting f be the faster speed and s the slower. Then f = s + 9 (mph).

Then (s + 9)(mph)(4 hr) + (s)(mph)(4 hr) = 604 mi. Solve this for s:

4s + 36 + 4s = 604 mi, or 8s = 568. Finally, s = 71 mph, and s+9 = f = 80 mph.

Answer:

Solutions: $x = \frac{-3}{ 4} + i \sqrt{39}$ , $x = \frac{-3}{4} - i \sqrt{39}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the quadratic equation, 2x² + 3x + 6 = 0, where a =2, b = 3, and c = 6:

Use the <u>quadratic equation</u> and substitute the values for a, b, and c to solve for the solutions:

$x = \frac{-b +/- \sqrt{b^{2} - 4ac} }{2a}$

$x = \frac{-3 +/- \sqrt{3^{2} - 4(2)(6)} }{2(2)}$

$x = \frac{-3 +/- \sqrt{9- 48} }{4}$

$x = \frac{-3 +/- \sqrt{-39} }{4}$

$x = \frac{-3 + i \sqrt{39} }{4}$ , $x = \frac{-3 - i \sqrt{39} }{4}$

Therefore, the solutions to the given quadratic equation are:

$x = -\frac{3}{ 4} + i \sqrt{39}$ , $x = -\frac{3}{4} - i \sqrt{39}$
