Answer:

Hey there !

Solution:

Let the number be x

=> x + 2x² = 10

=> 2x² + x - 10 = 0

Factorising the quadratic equation we get,

=> 2x² + 5x - 4x - 10 = 0

=> x ( 2x + 5 ) -2 ( 2x + 5 ) = 0

=> ( x - 2 ) ( 2x + 5 ) = 0

=> x = 2, -5/2

Since x is a whole number, -5 / 2 wont be applicable.

Hence x = 2.

Hence the number is 2.

Starting at home, Michael traveled uphill to the gift store for 24 minutes at just 10 mph. He then traveled back home along the
kondaur [170]
We can figure out how long Michael's trip took by realizing that 30 mph is 3 times 10 mph.  Because of this, the trip home will take 1/3 the amount of time it took to go up the hill.  This makes the equation 24 + 8 = 32 minutes for the whole trip.

Now we need to figure out how long the trip was.  We can do this by multiplying 10 minutes by 24/60, which equals 4.  This means that Michael went 4 miles there, and 4 miles back.  So Michael went a total of 8 miles.

Now we know that Michael went 8 miles in 32 minutes.  Now, we multiply 8 by 60/32.  This gives us 15, so Michael went 15 miles per hour on average in the trip.
