A) 42,000m divided by 2 1/3 = 18,000m divide by 1000m to get km = 18km/hr
B) 18,000m divided by 60 to get minutes = 300m divide by 60 to get seconds = 5m/sec.
Length = 20 ft
If he uses 60 ft of fencing to line his rectangular backyard, then the perimeter is 60 ft.
Perimeter formula is ((Width × 2) + (Length × 2))
10 × 2 = 20
20 × 2 = 40
40 + 20 = 60
This one is so easy that your brain refuses to accept it.
It's looking for a harder answer, but can't find it !
You're totally correct, as far you went. x² + 2x does = -1
Now add ' 1 ' to each side: x² + 2x + 1 = 0
Can you factor that quadratic ?
Can you mash it through the quadratic formula ?
Actually, it's the simplest possible perfect square.
x² + 2x + 1 = (x + 1)²
So the solutions of x² + 2x + 1 = 0 are both x = -1 .
Don't say anything.
I know it's embarrassing.
