What you wanna do here is use a calculator, as "e" in mathematics refers to the "e" on a calculator. The tricky part about this question is that the answer for the equation is the given percentage, NOT the value for "x". From there, plug in the multiple choice answers for "x" and see which one works!
In this case, A is the correct answer. B is absurdly large, so I omitted it immediately in the attached picture.
2xy^2 + 8y => 2y ( xy +4)
I have no idea sorry brainly is making me answer questions here’s a picture of my dog
1. 37.0952380952 or if rounded 38
2. 49.05 or if rounded 49.1 or 49
3. 2.84375 or if rounded 2.8 or 3
Normal-travel DATA:
distance = 240 km
rate = x km/h
time = d/r
= 240/x hrs
_______________________
Bad weather DATA:
distance = 240 km
rate = (x-20) km/h
time = 240/(x-20) hrs
______________________
Bad time - normal time = 2 hrs
240/(x-20) - 240/x = 2
120/(x-20) - 120/x = 1
120x -120(x-20) = x(x-20)
20 = x^2 -20x
x^2 - 20x - 20 = 0
x = [20 +- sqrt(20^2 - 4*1*-20)]/2
x = [20 +- sqrt(480)]/2
x = [20 +- 4sqrt(30)]/2
x = 10 +- 2sqrt(30)
