The total time taken to cover 12 miles distance is 5 hours.

<u>Given the Parameters</u> :

  • Total distance hiked = 12 miles

Recall :

  • Distance = speed × time

Let :

  • Total Time taken = t

<u>We could create an equation thus</u> :

Total distance = 3(2) + 2(t - 2)

12 = 6 + 2t - 4

12 = 2 + 2t

12 - 2 = 2t

10 = 2t

t = 10/2

t = 5

Therefore, the total time taken is 5 hours

Which statement about the following equation is true?
spayn [35]

The given expression is

3x^2 -8x +5 = 5x^2

We have to find the discriminant first . And for that, first we need to move whole terms of the left side to right side, that is

5x^2 -3x^2 +8x -5=0

2x^2+ 8x -5 =0

The formula of discriminant is

D =b^2 -4ac

Substituting the values of a,b and c, we will get

D = 8^2 -4(2)(-5)=64+40 = 104

And since the discriminant is greater than 0, or it is positive so we have two real roots.

Therefore the correct option is B .
