Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Givens

d1 = d

d2 = 75 - d

r1 = x

r2 = x + 7

t = 3

Equation

x*t + (x + 7)*t = 75

This equation represents the total distance travelled. Neither one of the cyclists have gone 75 miles, but they both have gone distances that equal a total of 75 miles.

Solution

3x + (x + 7)*3 = 75

3x + 3x + 21 = 75

6x + 21 = 75

6x = 54

6x/6 = 54/6

x = 9

Answer

The first cyclist is going 9 miles / hr

The second cyclist is going 16 miles / hour

Which expression is equivalent to 4x2 - 4x – 3 in factored form?
erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

(2x-3)(2x+1)

Step-by-step explanation:

4x^2 - 4x - 3

we need two numbers that give 12 when multiplied and 4 when subtracted

the numbers are 6 and 2 because 6*2=12 and 6-4=4.

4x^2 - (6-2)x -3

4x^2 -6x +2x -3

take common

2x(2x -3)+1(2x-3)

take (2x-3) as common

(2x-3)(2x*1 + 1*1)

(2x-3)(2x+1)
