Mr. Reed DATA:

rate = 40 mph ; time = x 4.5 hrs ; distance = 40x miles

-----

Mrs. Reed DATA:

rate = 60 mph ; time = x hrs ; distance = 60x - 210 miles

------

Equation:

40x = 60x -210

-20x = -210

x = 10.5 hrs

x-3.5 = 7 hrs (Mr. Reed's time)

viktelen [127]

Answer:

Interpreting as: X=a-sqrt b X=a+sqrt b

Alternate forms:

{a = (sqrt(b) + 1) X, a = X - sqrt(b), b = 0 ∨ X = -1}

{a = (sqrt(b) + 1) X, a + sqrt(b) = X, sqrt(b) (X + 1) = 0}

The answer is 12 including both sides and angles.

When you cut a square piece of paper from one point to the opposite point it should make two triangles.

Thus each triangle has 3 sides and 3 angles so two triangles has 6 angles and 6 sides

So 12, sides and angles added together.
