Answer:

5 is the solution with the greater value; -2/3 is the other solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

Set each factor of (3x+2)(x-5)=0 equal to zero and solve for x in each case:

3x+2 = 0 => 3x = -2 => x = -2/3

x-5 = 0 => x = 5

A cargo grain leaves Chicago at noon travelling west at 120 km/h. At 2 pm, a passenger train leaves Chicago travelling east at 3
AfilCa [17]

Answer:

a) The trains will be 1520 km apart at 2:40 pm for the cargo train and at 4:40 pm for the passenger train.

b) At that time the cargo train has traveled 560.04 km and the passenger train has traveled 960.12 km.

Step-by-step explanation:

a) First, we need to find the distance traveled by the cargo train in the two hours before the passenger train leaves Chicago:

x_{1} = v_{1}t_{1} = 120 km/h*2h = 240 km                    

Now, we can find the time when the trains will be 1520 km apart:

1520 km = (x_{1} + 240 km) + x_{2}      

Where 1 is for the cargo train and 2 is for the passenger train.

1520 km = (v_{1}*t_{1} + 240 km) + v_{2}t_{2}      

Since we need to calculate the time when the trains are 1520 km apart, t₁ = t₂, so:

1520 km = (v_{1}*t + 240 km) + v_{2}t              

t = \frac{1520 km - 240 km}{120 km/h + 360 km/h} = 2.667h

For the cargo train, it will be 1520 km apart from the passenger train at:

t_{1} = 12 pm + 2 h + 40 min = 2:40 pm

And for a passenger train, it will be 1520 km apart from the cargo train at:

t_{2} = 2 pm + 2 h + 40 min = 4:40 pm  

Hence, the trains will be 1520 km apart at 2:40 pm for the cargo train and at 4:40 pm for the passenger train.  

b) The distance traveled by both trains is given by:

x_{1} = v_{1}*t + 240 km = 120 km/h*2.667 h + 240 km = 560.04 km    

x_{2} = v_{2}*t = 360 km/h*2.667 h = 960.12 km    

Therefore, at that time the cargo train has traveled 560.04 km and the passenger train has traveled 960.12 km.

I hope it helps you!

Solve for x.
konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

The value of x = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle Bisector Theorem

An angle bisector of a triangle would cut the opposite side into two segments that are proportional to the other two sides of the triangle.

Thus,

\frac{x}{15}=\:\frac{12}{20}

Cross Multiply the expression

\:20\times x=12\times 15

Divide both sides by 20

\frac{20x }{20}=\frac{180}{20}

x=9

Therefore, the value of x = 9

46 - 40 = 6 (6 hours over time)

11.28 + 11.28/ 2 = $16.92 (overtime pays a rate of time and a half)

6 * $16.92 = $101.52

$451.20(40hours) +  $101.52(6hours overtime) = $552.72
