Answer:

-2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call the number x. The statement tells us that

x^2 - 10 = 3x, or

x^2-3x-10 = 0

Factoring:

(x-5)(x+2) = 0. Here, we see that there are two solutions: x = 5 and x = -2. So, the negative solution is x = -2.

Mara's family is driving to her grandmothers' house. The family travels 239.4 miles between the hours of 9:10 a.M. To 1:40 p.M.
anzhelika [568]

Answer:

53.2 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Mara's family travels 239.4 miles between the hours of 9:10 a.m. to 1:40 p.m.

1:40 p.m. is 13:40.

Thus, they traveled for

13 hours 40 minutes - 9 hours 10 minutes = 4 hours 30 minutes

that is 4\frac{1}{2}=4.5 hours.

Use formula:

D=r\cdot t,

where

D = distance

r = rate

t = time.

In your case,

D = 239.4 miles

t = 4.5 hours

Hence,

239.4=4.5r\\ \\r=\dfrac{239.4}{4.5}=53.2\ mph

Find the value of x for which the lines rand s are parallel.
erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

x = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

<1 and the 142-deg angle are vertical, so m<1 = 142 deg

The angle measuring 3x + 2 and <1 are same-side interior angles. If the lines are parallel, then those two angles are supplementary.

3x + 2 + 142 = 180

3x + 144 = 180

3x = 36

x = 12
