The distance between the towns is the number of miles between them

Town A and town B are 24 miles apart.

From the complete question, 4 parts are shaded.

The four parts represent the distance traveled by the bus.

So, we have:

\mathbf{4\ parts = 12\ miles}

Multiply both sides by 2, to get 8 parts

\mathbf{4\ parts \times 2= 12\ miles \times 2}

\mathbf{8\ parts = 24\ miles}

Rewrite as:

\mathbf{AB= 24\ miles}

Hence, town A and town B are 24 miles apart.

How is multiplying two<br> fractions similar to multiplying fractions and whole numbers?
Lunna [17]

Answer: They are similar in that when you multiply 2 fractions, you merely multiply the numerators together and the denominators together  they are different in that a division still remains once the multiplication is completed.

Determine the discriminant for the given equation x^2+4x+5=0. Then describe the roots(how many and what type).
Fed [463]

Discriminant = b^2 - 4ac, where a, b and c come from the form of the quadratic equation as ax^2 + bx + c

Discriminant = (4)^2 - 4(1)(5)
= 16 - 20
= -4

-4 < 0, therefor there are no roots

(If the discriminant = 0, then there is one root
If the discriminant > 0, there are two roots, and if it is a perfect square (eg. 4, 9, 16, etc.) then there are two rational roots
If the discriminant < 0, there are no roots)
