Answer:
looks like 9.5, but kinda hard to tell
55mph.
you can solve it using the equation distance=speed x time
your total distance is 714, and you have 2 trains, one traveling some speed, x, and one traveling x+8, both traveling for 7 hours.
your equation would look like this

and you can then solve for x, which would be 47. this is the speed of the slower train, but 47+8=55 with give you the speed of the faster train.
Answer: 2
Step-by-step explanation:
m = y2 - y1 / x2- x1
where slope is m,
so in this case it would be
m= 1-(-1) / 3-2
m=2/1
m=2
Note that you can do it either way
Answer:
ST = 20
Step-by-step explanation:
Line segment RS and segment ST must add up to line segment RT
Step 1: Define
RS = 17
ST = x + 6
RT = 3x - 5
Step 2: Set up equation
mRS + mST = mRT
17 + x + 6 = 3x - 5
Step 3: Solve for <em>x</em>
x + 23 = 3x - 5
23 = 2x - 5
28 = 2x
x = 14
Step 3: Find mST
ST = x + 6
ST = 14 + 6
ST = 20
Answer:
1/8
Step-by-step explanation:
1st day......1/3
2nd day....1/6
3rd day....3/8
common denominator of 24
1/3 + 1/6 + 3/8 = 8/24 + 4/24 + 9/24 = 21/24 (this is water used)
that means that : (24/24 - 21/24) = 3/24 reduces to 1/8 .....water in the tank
