Answer: 180 ÷ 2 = 90; 90 ÷ 2 = 45 ; 45 ÷ 3 = 15 ; 15 ÷ 3 = 5 ; 5 ÷ 5 = 1 => 180 = (2^2) * (3^2) * 5 => √(180) = 2*3 * √(5 )=6 √(5)  ;

In the same way we have √(245)=7 √(5)  ; and √(320 )=8 √(5)  ;

Finally, 6 √(5)+7 √(5)  - 8 √(5) = 13 √(5) - 8 √(5) =7 √(5).

-(4x - 7) + 1 = 2 (5 - 2x) solve for x

Answers

Answer:

No solution

Step-by-step explanation:

-(4x - 7) + 1 = 2(5 - 2x)

-4x + 7 + 1 = 10 - 4x

-4x + 8 = 10 - 4x

-4x + 8 ≠ -4x + 10

Two bicyclists leave the center of town at the same time. One heads due north and the other heads due west. Later, the two cyclists are exactly 25 mi apart. The cyclist headed north has traveled 5 mi farther than the cyclist going west.How far has the cyclist going west traveled?

Answers

Answer:

Distance traveled by bicyclist traveling west  = 15 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Two bicyclists leave the center of town at the same time. One heads due north and the other heads due west. Later, the two cyclists are exactly 25 mi apart. The cyclist headed north has traveled 5 mi farther than the cyclist going west.

These two cyclists travel at angle 90°

Relative displacement can be calculated using Pythagoras theorem.

Let d be the distance traveled by bicyclist traveling west

Distance traveled by bicyclist traveling north =  d + 5

25^2=d^2+(d+5)^2\n\nd^2+d^2+10d+25=625\n\n2d^2+5d-600=0\n\nd^2+5d-300=0\n\nd=(-5\pm √(5^2-4* 1* (-300)))/(2* 1)\n\nd=(-5\pm √(25+1200))/(2)\n\nd=(-5\pm √(1225))/(2)\n\nd=(-5\pm 35)/(2)\n\nd=15miles\texttt{ or }d=-20miles

Negative displacement is not possible.

Hence d = 15 miles

Distance traveled by bicyclist traveling west = d = 15 miles

This  situation is represented  in annex. 
From Pythagorean theorem you've got equation:
x^2+(x+5)^2=25 \n \n \hbox{From formula} \ \ \ (a+b)^2 = a^2+2ab+b^2: \n \n x^2+x^2+10x+25=25 \n 2x^2+10x=0 \n \n \hbox{Factor out} \ \ 2x: \n 2x(x+5)=0 \n \n \hbox{So you've got:} \n \n x_1=0 \n x_2=-5

There isn't any solutions where x>0, so this situation is IMPOSSIBLE.
