Answer:
Two trains leave a town at the same time heading in opposite directions. One train is traveling 12 mph faster than the other. After two hours, they are 232 miles apart. What is the average speed of each train?
52 mph; 64 mph
55 mph; 70 mph
92 mph; 104 mph
98 mph; 110 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's actually find the roots, using the quadratic formula:
<span>p(x)=x^2+x+3 gives us a=1, b=1 and c=3.
-1 plus or minus sqrt(1^2-4(1)(3))
Then x = -----------------------------------------------
2
The discriminant here is negative, so the roots x will be complex:
-1 plus or minus sqrt(-11) -1 plus or minus i*sqrt(11)
x = ---------------------------------- = -------------------------------------
2 2
These are irrational roots; they cannot be expressed as the ratios of integers.</span>
1 + (-5/8) = 3/8
Explanation: If the coffee wasn’t drank it would’ve been at fraction 1 (or 100%)
Since he drank 5/8 of it. The coffee left is now 1-(5/8)
But since the question has asked to give the equation in addition format. Put a plus sign in between the two.
Therefore,
1 + (-5/8)
Solve it,
= 1-(5/8)
= (8-5)/8
= 3/8
Hence the equation is:
1 + (-5/8) = 3/8.
