Two trains started moving at the same time, train A from Boston to New York, and train B from New York to Boston. The distance between the train stations in New York and Boston is 240 miles. The average speed of train A is 60 mph, which is 3 4 of the average speed of train B.
1. How soon will the trains meet
2. How far from New York will the trains meet?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

------

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The average speed of train A = 60 mph,

   The average speed of train B = 60 / 3/4 = 80 mph

Time it takes for trains to meet = 240/(60 + 80) = 240/140 = 12/7 hours

2. The trains meet in 12/7 hours, each traveling at their own speed.

S = D/T, D = S*T

Therefore we can say:

12/7(60) = distance train A is from Boston = 720/7 miles

12/7(80) = distance train B is from New York = 960/7 miles

The distance from New York would = 960/7 miles

Hal read 114 pages of his book during vacation. This was 60 percent of the book. How many pages does Hal have left to read

Answers

Answer:

76

Step-by-step explanation:

Let number of pages=x

60% of x=114

x=114×100/60=190

pages left=190-114=76

HELP Asap please!!!!!

Answers

Answer:

x should be 55

Step-by-step explanation:

the acute angle is 55 and we know that the whole horizontal is 180 so calculate 180-55 to find the obtuse angle which is 125. Then subtract 70 from that to isolate for x and you get 55.

They are a linear pair so they equal 180 so 55+70=125 and 180-125=55 so x= 55

2. The volume of a cylinder varies jointly with its height and the square of the radius. A 7.85 cubic inch spice container is 2.5 inches tall and has a radius of 1 inch. Another spice container is 3 inches tall with a radius of 1.5 inches, what would be the volume?

Answers

Answer:

Volume=21.195 cubic inch

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a cylinder varies jointly with its height and the square of the radius is expressed as

V∝hr^2

Introducing our constant of proportionality,K we have that

V =Khr^2

Given that A 7.85 cubic inch spice container is 2.5 inches tall and has a radius of 1 inch. We have that

V =Khr^2

7.85=K 2.5 X 1^2

K=7.85/2.5 x1

K=3.14

Given that another spice container is 3 inches tall with a radius of 1.5 inches, Volume=?

V =Khr^2

V=3.14 X 3 X 1.5^2

V=21.195 cubic inch

Write an equation for the amount of money, , that will be collected if boxes of chocolate bars are sold. Which is the independent variable and which is the dependent variable

Answers

Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Let amount of money = C

If the number of chocolate bars sold = x

Let cost per chocolate bar = p, since cost per bar isn't stated

Amount of money that will be collected :

C(x) = P * x

The dependent variable is the Amount of money that will be collected as the amount of money depends on the number of chockate bars sold

The number of chocolate bars sold us the independent variable as it dictates the amout of money to be collected, hence it is the predictor variable.

1. (08.01, 8.02 MC) An expression is shown below: 2x3y2 + 18xy2 − 20x2y − 180y Part A: Rewrite the expression so that the GCF is factored completely. (4 points) Part B: Rewrite the expression completely factored. Show the steps of your work. (6 points) (10 points)

Answers

Answer:

A. 2y

B. (xy − 10)(2x²y + 18y)

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A: Rewrite the expression so that the GCF is factored completely.

2x³y² + 18xy² − 20x²y − 180y

Factoring y out, we have

(2x³y + 18xy − 20x² − 180)y

Factoring 2 out, we have

(x³y + 9xy − 10x² − 90)2y

So, the GCF is 2y and the expression factored is (x³y + 9xy − 10x² − 90)2y

Part B: Rewrite the expression completely factored.

2x³y² + 18xy² − 20x²y − 180y

Rearranging, we have

2x³y² − 20x²y + 18xy²  − 180y

Separating them into brackets, we have

(2x³y² − 20x²y) + (18xy²  − 180y)

Factorizing the expressions in bracket, we have

(xy − 10)2x²y + (xy  − 10)18y

collecting like terms, we have

(xy − 10)(2x²y + 18y)
