Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Remark
I don't think you need the quadratic formula for this equation. It just factors into (b - 2)(b - 2), but I'll do it because you requested it.
Formula

Givens
a = 1
b = - 4
c = 4
Solution
x = - - 4 +/- sqrt((-4^2) - 4*1*4)
====================
2*1
x = 4 +/- sqrt (16 - 16)
==========
2
x = 4/2
x = 2
There are 2 roots but both of them are the same. Some teachers say there is only 1 root. I'm in that group.
Answer: 3.5 h
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>1. Data:</u>
a) s = 740 miles / h
b) d = 2,567 miles
c) t = ?
<u>2. Equation:</u>
<u>3. Solution:</u>
- Solve the equation for t:
s = d / t ⇒ t = d / s
t = 2,567 miles / (740 miles/h) ≈ 3.47 h ≈ 3.5 h
It is into its proper fraction and cannot be simplified down any further. Therefore the proper fraction is 1/2
Answer:
Mr.Walters car can go 15 miles on one gallon of gas.
Step-by-step explanation:
To find this, you first want to put it into a ratio.
480:32
Next, you want to divide.
480/32
After you divide, you get 15. That tells you that you get 15 miles off of one gallon of gas.
