Step-by-step explanation:
√3 x² - 2x - √3 = 0
√3 x² - 3x + x - √3 = 0
√3 x(x - √3) + 1(x - √3) = 0
(x - √3 ) (√3 x + 1) = 0
x - √3 = 0 , √3 x +1 = 0
x = √3 , x = -1/√3
<span>If Charles leaves the marina and sails his boat 10° west of north for 1.5h at 18km/h, then makes a right turn towards 60° east of north for 1.2h at 20km/h, he is 42 km from his starting point.</span>
Answer:
D. 2
Step-by-step explanation:
M(0,2b)
N(2a,0)
Then the midpoint P coordinates are
P\left(\dfrac{2a+0}{2},\dfrac{0+2b}{2}\right)\Rightarrow P(a,b)
Use distance formula to find OP and MN:
OP=\sqrt{(a-0)^2+(b-0)^2}=\sqrt{a^2+b^2}\\ \\MN=\sqrt{(2a-0)^2+(2b-0)^2}=\sqrt{4a^2+4b^2}=2\sqrt{a^2+b^2}
So,
MN=2OP
or
OP=1/2 MN
