Answer:
x ≈ - 9.41, x ≈ - 6.59
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
x² + 16x + 62 = 0 ( subtract 62 from both sides )
x² + 16x = - 62
To complete the square
add ( half the coefficient of the x- term )² to both sides
x² + 2(8)x + 64 = - 62 + 64
(x + 8)² = 2 ( take the square root of both sides )
x + 8 = ± 
( subtract 8 from both sides )
x = - 8 ±
Hence
x = - 8 - ≈ - 9.41
x = - 8 + ≈ - 6.59
Step-by-step explanation:
Ounces of water = 56 - 14 = 42 ounces
Ratio of sugar to water
56 : 42
8 : 6
4 : 3
6 seconds = 540 m
-----------------------------
Find 1 second:
-----------------------------
6 sec = 540 m
1 sec = 540 ÷ 6
1 sec = 90m
-----------------------------
Find 4 seconds:
-----------------------------
1 sec = 90m
4 sec = 90 x 4
4 sec = 360 m
----------------------------------------------------------
Answer: It can travel 360m in 4 seconds.

Thank you!! Have a great day!
4 - 4y - y² = 0
-y² - 4y + 4 = 0
y = -(-4) ± √((-4)² - 4(4)(-1))
2(-1)
y = 4 ± √(16 + 16)
-2
y = 4 ± √(32)
-2
y = 4 ± 4√(2)
-2
y = 4 + 4√(2) or y = 4 - 4√(2)
-2 -2
y = -2 - 2√(2) or y = -2 + 2√(2)
The answer is C.
