Answer:

There were 6 benches in park 1 and 18 benches in park 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the no of benches in Park 1 and y in park 2.

Given that there are 12 more benches in park 2 than 1

Writing this in equation form, we have y = x+12 ... i

Next is if 2 benches were transferred from park 2 to park 1, then we have

x+2 in park 1 and y-2 in park 2.

Given that y-2 = twice that of x+2

Or y-2 = 2x+4 ... ii

Rewrite by adding 2 to both sides of equation ii.

y = 2x+6 ... iii

i-iii gives 0 = -x+6

Or x =6

Substitute in i, to have y = 6+12 = 18

Verify:

Original benches 6 and 18.

18 = 6+12 hence I condition is satisfied

18-2 = 2(6+2)

II is also satisfied.

Park 2: 12 more benches

take two away

park two: 10 more benches and has 2 times more benches than park one

half of 10 is 5

5 minus the 2 benches is 3, which was what to start with

if park two had 12 more benches then the 3 that the park one had then 3 + 12 is 15

CORRECT ANSWER: 15

The International Space Station orbits at an altitude of about 250 miles about Earth’s surface. The radius of Earth is approxima
Hatshy [7]
In this case we are dealing with the pythagorean theorm involving right angled triangles. This theorm states that a^2 + b^2 = c^2 which means the square of the hypotenuse (side c, opposite the right angle) is equal to the square of the remaining two sides.

In this case we will say that a = 3963 miles which is the radius of the earth. c is equal to the radius of the earth plus the additional altitude of the space station which is 250 miles; therefore, c = 4213 miles. We must now solve for the value b which is equal to how far an astronaut can see to the horizon.

(3963)^2 + b^2 = (4213)^2
b^2 = 2,044,000
b = 1430 miles.

The astronaut can see 1430 miles to the horizon.

What are the real and complex solutions of the polynomial equation? x^4-41x^2=-400
tankabanditka [31]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

The real solutions are -5, -4, 4, 5. There are no complex solutions.

<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

The equation ...

... x^4 -41x^2 +400 = 0

can be factored as ...

... (x^2 -16)(x^2 -25) = 0

... (x -4)(x +4)(x -5)(x +5) = 0

So, all roots are real and are ...

... x ∈ {-5, -4, 4, 5}

_____

These are the values of x that make the factors zero.
