The total length of the segment AC is the sum of AB and CB, which gives, CB = 9

<h3>How can the length of CB be found?</h3>

The given parameters are;

  • AC = 17
  • AB = 32 + 3•x
  • CB = 57 + 6•x

Required: <em>CB</em>

Solution:

AC = <em>AB + CB</em> by segment addition property

Therefore;

AC = 17 = 32 + 3•x + 57 + 6•x = 89 + 9•x

17 = 89 + 9•x

x =  \frac{17 - 89}{9}  =  - 8

CB = 57 + 6•x = 57 + 6 × (-8) = 9

Therefore;

  • <u>CB = 9</u>

A train left for London, and after 9 hours later, a car traveling 80 miles per hour tried catching up to the train. After 3 hour
morpeh [17]

Answer:

20 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the train left for London, and after 9 hours later, a car traveling 80 miles per hour tried catching up to the train. After 3 hours, the car caught up

Which means that the car travelled the same distance in 3 hours as the train travelled in 9 + 3 = 12 hours

Let the distance be d

Given the speed of car is 80 miles per hour

We know that speed=\frac{distance }{time}

80=\frac{d}{3}

d = 240 miles

Now for the train Average speed = total distance / total time taken

Average speed of the train = \frac{240}{12} = 20 miles per hour
