Answer:
The solution of the equations are -6 and 1
Step-by-step explanation:
* <em>Lets explain how to solve the problem</em>
- We want to find the solution of the equation (x + 2) (x + 3) = 12
- <em>At first lets use the Foil method to multiply the two brackets</em>
(x + 2) (x + 3) = (x)(x) + (x)(3) + (2)(x) + (2)(3)
(x + 2) (x + 3) = x² + 3x + 2x + 6 ⇒ add the like term
(x + 2) (x + 3) = x² + 5x + 6
∵ (x + 2) (x + 3) = 12
∴ x² + 5x + 6 = 12
- Subtract 12 from both sides
∴ x² + 5x - 6 = 0
- <em>Factorize the left hand side</em>
∵ x² = (x)(x)
∵ -6 = 6 × -1
∵ 6x + -1x = 5x
∴ (x + 6)(x - 1) = 0
- <em>Lets use the zero product property </em>
∵ (x + 6)(x - 1) = 0
∴ x + 6 = 0 ⇒ <em>OR</em> ⇒ x - 1 = 0
∵ x + 6 = 0
- Subtract 6 from both sides
∴ x = -6
∵ x - 1 = 0
- Add 1 to both sides
∴ x = 1
∴ The solution of the equations are -6 and 1
Answer: 4.1 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question, we are informed that New York City is approximately 205 miles from Washington, D.C.
The distance that these cities will appear on a map with the scale 1 in: 50 miles will be represented by x.
Therefore, x:205 = 1:50
Cross multiply
x/205 = 1/50
50x = 205
x = 205/50
x = 4.1 inches
The answer is 4.1 inches
Its 1/24 cubic centimetre.
Hope this helps.
Where is the graph? do you have a pic or website?
So the eastbound train travels at 90 miles per hour in the complete opposite direction to the westbound equivalent, which travels at 80 miles per hour. Therefore, per hour, they get 170 miles away from each other. Since we are working out how long it would take for them to be 204 miles apart:
204 / 170 = 1.2 Hours, or 1 hour and 12 minutes.
Hope I helped!
