Answer:

initial speed: 240 m/h

Step-by-step explanation:

48 m/h is the current speed which is the 20% of X

x (20 / 100) = 48

20x = 4800

x = 4800/20

x = 240 m/h

{35km + x = 140km} {140km - 35km= 105km} so the car traveled 105 kilometers.

Rich has a bag of 24 pencils. Each pencil is 19 centimeters long. What is the combined length of the pencils in meters

Roman55 [17]

Multiply the number of pencils by the length to get total centimeters first, then convert to meters:

24 x 19 = 456 cams.

1 meter = 100 cm

Divide total cm by 100 to get meters

456 / 100 = 4.56 meters

Find the zeros of polynomial x^2-3

Yakvenalex [24]

$▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪ {\huge\mathfrak{Answer}}▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪$

The required zeroes are ~

$\boxed{ \boxed {\sqrt{3}} \: \: and \: \: \boxed{- \sqrt{3} }}$

$\large \boxed{ \mathfrak{Step\:\: By\:\:Step\:\:Explanation}}$

Let's equate the given polynomial with 0, to find its roots ~

that is ~

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

${x}^{2} - ( \sqrt{3} ) {}^{2} = 0$

$(x + \sqrt{3} )(x - \sqrt{3} ) = 0$

there are two cases,

Case # 1 - when (x + √3) = 0

$x + \sqrt{3} = 0$

$x = - \sqrt{3}$

and

Case # 2 - when (x - √3) = 0

$x - \sqrt{3} = 0$

$x = \sqrt{3}$
