9514 1404 393

Answer:

  3.5 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

The separation distance is increasing at the rate of 20 mph + 60 mph = 80 mph. It will be 280 miles after ...

  time = distance/rate

  time = (280 mi)/(80 mi/h) = 3.5 h

The two cars will be 280 miles apart after 3 1/2 hours.

Determine the next step for solving the quadratic equation by completing the square.
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

The solutions are x=\frac{1+\sqrt{7}}{2} and x=\frac{1-\sqrt{7}}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

0=-2x^{2}+2x+3

Group terms that contain the same variable, and move the constant to the opposite side of the equation

-3=-2x^{2}+2x

Factor the leading coefficient

-3=-2(x^{2}-x)

Complete the square. Remember to balance the equation by adding the same constants to each side.

-3-0.5=-2(x^{2}-x+0.5^{2})

-3.5=-2(x^{2}-x+0.5^{2})

Rewrite as perfect squares

-3.5=-2(x-0.5)^{2}

7/4=(x-0.5)^{2}

square root both sides

x-0.5=(+/-)\sqrt{\frac{7}{4}}

x-\frac{1}{2}=(+/-)\frac{\sqrt{7}}{2}

x=\frac{1}{2}(+/-)\frac{\sqrt{7}}{2}

x=\frac{1+\sqrt{7}}{2}

x=\frac{1-\sqrt{7}}{2}

How many different combinations are possible if each lock contains the numbers 0 to 39, and each combination contains three dist
Georgia [21]
(e) Each license has the formABcxyz;whereC6=A; Bandx; y; zare pair-wise distinct. There are 26-2=24 possibilities forcand 10;9 and 8 possibilitiesfor each digitx; yandz;respectively, so that there are 241098 dierentlicense plates satisfying the condition of the question.3:A combination lock requires three selections of numbers, each from 1 through39:Suppose that lock is constructed in such a way that no number can be usedtwice in a row, but the same number may occur both rst and third. How manydierent combinations are possible?Solution.We can choose a combination of the formabcwherea; b; carepair-wise distinct and we get 393837 = 54834 combinations or we can choosea combination of typeabawherea6=b:There are 3938 = 1482 combinations.As two types give two disjoint sets of combinations, by addition principle, thenumber of combinations is 54834 + 1482 = 56316:4:(a) How many integers from 1 to 100;000 contain the digit 6 exactly once?(b) How many integers from 1 to 100;000 contain the digit 6 at least once?(a) How many integers from 1 to 100;000 contain two or more occurrencesof the digit 6?Solutions.(a) We identify the integers from 1 through to 100;000 by astring of length 5:(100,000 is the only string of length 6 but it does not contain6:) Also not that the rst digit could be zero but all of the digit cannot be zeroat the same time. As 6 appear exactly once, one of the following cases hold:a= 6 andb; c; d; e6= 6 and so there are 194possibilities.b= 6 anda; c; d; e6= 6;there are 194possibilities. And so on.There are 5 such possibilities and hence there are 594= 32805 such integers.(b) LetU=f1;2;;100;000g:LetAUbe the integers that DO NOTcontain 6:Every number inShas the formabcdeor 100000;where each digitcan take any value in the setf0;1;2;3;4;5;7;8;9gbut all of the digits cannot bezero since 00000 is not allowed.
