Answer:

They will meet in 1.8 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that, distance between trains = 306 miles

Let they take time 't' to meet each other.

Speed of first train = 90 mph

Speed of second train = 80 mph

Let distance traveled by first train = D_1 miles

Formula for distance:

Distance = Speed \times Time

Distance traveled by first train, D_1 = 90t

Let distance traveled by first train = D_2 miles

Formula for distance:

Distance = Speed \times Time

Distance traveled by first train, D_2 = 80t

Total distance traveled is 306 miles.

i.e.

D_1+D_2=306\\\Rightarrow 90t +80t=306\\\Rightarrow 170t=306\\\Rightarrow t =\dfrac{306}{170}\\\Rightarrow \bold{t=1.8\ hr}

They will meet in 1.8 hours.

Find two consecutive even integers whose sum is 14
bagirrra123 [75]
Let x = small number
Let y = large number 
Because they are consecutive even numbers,they must have a difference of 2:
y-x=2
y=2+x

Eqn 1: x+(2+x)=14

Eqn 2: x(2+x)=48

2x+2=14
2x=12
x=6

This means y must be 8 

so your two numbers are 6 and 8

Zohar is using scissors to cut a rectangle with a length of 5x – 2 and a width of 3x + 1 out of a larger piece of paper. Which e
sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer with Step-by-step explanation:

Zohar cut a rectangle with a length of 5x – 2

and a width of 3x + 1

We know that:

Perimeter of rectangle is:

Perimeter=2(length+width)

                =2(5x-2+3x+1)

                =2(8x-1)

                =16x-2

Hence, expression which can be used to find the perimeter of the rectangle is:

16x-2

Now, when x=4

16x-2=16×4-2

        =62

Hence, when x=4 ,Perimeter=62
