Answer:

1.27, -6.27 to the nearest hundredth,

or if you require it in exact form,

-2.5 + √14.25,   -2.5 - √14.25.

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 = -5x + 8

x^2 + 5x  = 8

Competing the square:

(x + 2.5)^2 - 6.25 = 8

(x + 2.5) = 14.25

x + 2.5 = +/-√14.25

x = -2.5 + √14.25,   -2.5 - √14.25

x = -2.5 + 3.77,  -2.5 - 3.77

= 1.27, -6.27.

adelina 88 [10]

Answer: Student tickets sold= 1,035  Adult tickets sold= 400                  


Step-by-step explanation: S=1035 Number of student tickets

A+S=1435

A+1035=1435

A=1435-1035

A=400 Number of adult tickets

PROOF:

5*400+1035*1.50=3552.50

2000+1552.50= 3552.50

3552.50= 3552.50

Question 13
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Here in this question , we are interested in calculating the total distance covered by the train in the 10 minutes that it ran.

From the first part of the question, we already know the distances in the first 5 minutes.

Now, to calculate the total distance in the second 5 minutes, we use the distance formula since we have the average speed and the time;

Mathematically; Total distance = average speed * time

From the question, average speed is 33km/h, while time is 5 minutes. To achieve a consistent unit, we convert 5 minutes to hours.

That would be 5/60 = 1/12 hours

So the total distance in the second 5 minutes is;

33 * 1/12 = 2.75 km

Now, to calculate the total distance traveled, let’s add up the distances in the first 5 minutes and convert to kilometers;

That would be;

68 + 127 + 208 + 312 + 535 = 1,250 m

Let’s convert this to km.

We simply divide by 1000 = 1250/1000 = 1.25 km

The total distance is thus ;

1.25 + 2.75 = 4 km

I believe it's science, though I'm not quite sure. Perhaps it would be better to search it up from different places.
