Answer:
2 hours
Remember that time = distance/rate
The distance you need to cover is 56 miles, while you go 28 miles per hour. Using these, we get this:
time=56/28
time=2
So it will take two hours to go across a 56 mile wide bay at 28 mph.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Part A: chosen method is by factoring
Part B: First rewrite the equation by writing -24 as a difference so you get x² -9x - 15x + 135 = 0. Then factor out the x and the -15 from the equation so you get x(x-9) - 15(x-9) = 0. Then factor out x-9 from the equation so you have (x-9)(x-15) = 0. Finally, set each expression to 0: x-9=0 and x-15=0 and then solve: x=9 and x=15
Part C: x=9, x=15
Let n be the amount of time it takes william to cut the lawn. Then Shelly takes
n-2 hours. So:
1/n+1/n-2=1/3
3(n-2)+3n=n²-2n
6n-6=n²-2n
n²-8n+6=0
Using the quadratic formula, we get a positive value of 7.1623 hrs as the amount of time william takes working alone, and 5.1623 as the amount of time Shelly takes working alone

9 on the top as well so 9 x 2 18 3x2 6 3
Answer:
Solution set = {-12, 12}
Step-by-step explanation:
Start by dividing both sides of the given equation by negative one, to get rid of the negative signs on both sides:

Now we consider the two possible cases:
1) The expression inside the absolute value symbol is a positive number, then :

and replacing it in the equation, this becomes:

which is our first answer.
2) The expression inside the absolute value symbol is a negative number, then :

and replacing it in the equation, this becomes:

which is our second possible answer.
Then the set of solutions is: {-12, 12}
