Answer:
(x, y) = (-3, -13) or (-8, -23)
Step-by-step explanation:
The values for y can be equated and the resulting quadratic solved by factoring.
2x -7 = x^2 +13x +17
0 = x^2 +11x +24 . . . . . . subtract 2x-7
0 = (x +8)(x +3) . . . . . . . .factor*
The values of x that make these factors zero are x=-8 and x=-3. The corresponding values of y are ...
y = 2(-8) -7 = -23
y = 2(-3) -7 = -13
The solutions are ...
(x, y) = (-8, -23) and (-3, -13)
_____
* The constants in the binomial factors are factors of 24 that total 11. You know that ...
24 = 1×24 = 2×12 = 3×8 = 4×6
The sums of these factors are 25, 14, 11, 10. The factors 3 and 8 are the constants in the binomial factors of the quadratic.
"24" is the constant in the quadratic. "11" is the coefficient of the x term.
I think the answer is 0.4
Answer:
The square root of 222 is an irational number.
Answer:
Distance between A and B is 5400 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
Consider "D" the letter to identify distance between A and B
Let's use "t" to identify the time of the first encounter (Devi and Kumar), and create an equation that states that the distance covered by Devi (at 100 m/min) in time "t", is equal to the total distance D minus what Kumar has covered at his speed (80 m/min) in that same time:
Recall that distance equals the speed times the time:
distance= speed * time
First encounter:
100 * t = D - 80 * t
180 * t = D Equation (1)
Not, 6 minutes later (at time t+6) , Devi and Li Ting meet .
Then for this encounter the distance covered by Devi equals total distance d minus the distance covered by Li Ting:
100 *(t+6) = D - 75 * (t+6)
100 t + 600 = D - 75 t - 450
175 T + 150 = D Equation (2)
Now, let's equal equation (1) to equation (2), since D should be the same:
180 t = 175 t + 150
5 t = 150
t = 30
Then the time t (first encounter) is 30 minutes. Knowing this, we can use either equation to find D:
From Equation (1) for example: D = 180 * t = 180 * 30 = 5400 meters
