First, we determine the speed of the ferry by dividing the distance by the time it took to cover that certain distance.
speed = (1/6) / (3/7)
speed = 7/18
Then, the distance it will travel for an hour is calculated through the procedure below.
distance = (7/18hour) x (1 hour)
distance = 7/18
Therefore, after an hour, the ferry will be able to travel 7/18 of the distance between two ports.

The polynomial equation x^3+x^2=-9x-9 has complex roots +/-3i What is the other root? Use a graphing calculator and a system of

Ierofanga [76]

For this case what you can do is factorize the <span>polynomial equation</span>, which would be left like follows
x ^ 3 + x ^ 2 + 9x + 9 = 0
(x + 1) (x ^ 2 + 9) = 0
Resolving, we have that the missing root is
x = -1
Answer
x=-1
