Answer:

  78.71 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

You're looking for the solution to ...

  d = 88

  0.0015r^2 +r = 88

  0.0015r^2 +r -88 = 0

Using the quadratic formula*, we find ...

  r = (-1 +√(1² -4(0.0015)(-88)))/(2×0.0015)

  r = (-1 +√1.528)/0.003 = 0.236123/0.003 = 78.7077

The speed of the car was about 78.71 mph.

_____

* The quadratic formula will also give a negative answer of about -745 mph, which is not relevant to the situation.

Which of the following shows the correct solution steps and solution to 7x- 4 = -182 7x - 4 = -18 71 - 4+4= -18 + 4 72 = -14 A.
erica [24]

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

7x- 4 = -182

<em>Step:</em>

Add 4 to both sides

7x - 4 + 4 = -182 + 4

Simplify

7x = -178

Divide both sides by 7

7x/7 = -178/7

Simplify

x = -178/7

Decimal form = -25.4285714286

Answer:

y = 4; g(7) = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The meaning of g(7) is wherever you see an x in g(x) you put a 7. In this case you are being told that x = 7

So go to 7 on the x axis, go up until you hit the blue line which is g(x) and then read what it says on the y axis. It shows 4 and that is your answer.

How many solutions are there for the system x^2+4y^2=100 and 4y-x^2=-20
never [62]
There are 5 solutions for this system.

x^2 + 4y^2 = 100  ____1
4y - x^2 = -20  ____2
Add both 1 & 2 together. x^2 gets cancelled
4y^2 + 4y = 80   (send 80 to the other side and divide by 4)
Then equation the becomes : y^2 + y -20 =0
Now factorise the equation: (y+5) (y-4) = 0
Solve for y :  y = -5 and y = 4
Using the values of y to find the values of x. From equation 1:
x^2 = 100 - 4y^2    x = /100 - 4y^2  (/ means square root) Replace values of y
y = -5, x = /100 - 4(-5)^2 = /100 - 100 = 0
y = 4, x = /100 - 4(4)^2 = / 100 - 64 = /36 = -6 or 6
Thus we have 6 solutions y = -5, 4 and x = -6, 0, 6
