•solve using the quadratic formula
2x2 + 11x +15= 0

x=-5/2, -3

Step-by-step explanation:

2x^2+11x+15=0

factor out the trinomial

(2x+5)(x+3)=0

zero property,

2x+5=0, x+3=0

2x=0-5=-5, x=-5/2

x=0-3=-3

your answer would be 12

b. 1.25 hr

step-by-step explanation:

if you have a constant speed of 60 mph, then you have a ratio between 60 mi. to 1 hr. dividing both sides by 60 we get the ratio

1 mi. to

then mult. both sides by 75 we get the ratio

75 mi. to

simplifying we get

75 mi. to

or 1.25 hr.
