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.

What number is to be multiplied with 1/3 to get 1/21
dybincka [34]

Answer:

1/7

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we do not know the number let us use the alphabet A to represent the unknown number

A × 1/3= 1/21

A/3= 1/21

Cross multiply both sides

A×21= 3×1

21A= 3

Divide both sides by the coefficient of A which is 21

21A/21=3/21

A=1/7

Hence the unknown number is 1/7

ms. wilson draws a model of the factorization of a polynomial with integer factors. her model is partially complete. which equat
Oliga [24]
I'll just factor the above equation.

x² + 18x + 80

x² ⇒ x * x
80
can be:
1 x 80
2 x 40
4 x 20
5 x 16
8 x 10  Correct pair

(x+8)(x+10)
x(x+10) +8(x+10) ⇒ x² + 10x + 8x + 80 = x² + 18x + 80

x+8 = 0
x = -8

x+10 = 0
x = -10

x = -8

(-8)² + 18(-8) + 80 = 0
64 - 144 + 80 = 0
144 - 144 = 0
0 = 0

(-10)² + 18(-10) + 80 = 0
100 - 180 + 80 = 0
180 - 180 = 0
0 = 0

I think the algebra tiles will not be a good tool to use to factor the quadratic equation because the equation is not a perfect square quadratic equation.
