Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
A 2nd order polynomial such as this one will have 2 roots; a 3rd order polynomial 3 roots, and so on.
The quadratic formula is one of the faster ways (in this situation, at least) in which to find the roots. From 2x^2 + 4x + 7 we get a = 2, b = 4 and c = 7.
Then the discriminant is b^2 - 4ac, or, here, 4^2 - 4(2)(7), or -40. Because the discriminant is negative, we know that the roots will be complex and unequal.
Using the quadratic formula:
-4 ±√[-40] -4 ± 2i√10
x = ------------------ = ------------------
4 4
-2 ± i√10
Thus, the roots are x = ------------------

X/a=0.5
y/a=0.5
X+y/a
a=2
X=1
y=1
x+y=a(1)
1+y=2(1)
y=2-1
y=1

Answer:
1 hour= 45 miles
1/2 hour=22.5 miles
3 hours= 135
Step-by-step explanation:
just work out one hour by halving 90 miles which is 45. Then work out the rest by halving again and multiplying by 3.
