The question is missing the graph. So, the graph is attached below.

Answer:

The maximum speed of the train is V=240\ km/h

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Distance travelled is 100 km.

Time interval is 30 minutes.

We know that, area under the curve of a speed-time graph gives the total distance travelled by the train.

The area under the curve is the area of the given trapezium shape shown in the graph below.

The height of the trapezium is equal to the maximum speed of the train represented by 'V' km/h. The parallel sides are of lengths equal to (25 - 5 =) 20 min and (30 - 0 =) 30 min.

Converting the units of parallel sides from minutes to hours we get:

30\ min=\frac{30}{60}=\frac{1}{2}\ h\\20\ min=\frac{20}{60}=\frac{1}{3}\ h

Now, area of a trapezium is given as:

Area=\frac{1}{2}\times\textrm{Sum of parallel sides}\times \textrm{Height}\\\\Area=\frac{1}{2}(\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{3})(V)\\\\Area=\frac{1}{2}(\frac{3+2}{6})(V)\\\\Area=\frac{1}{2}(\frac{5}{6})(V)\\\\Area=(\frac{1\times 5}{2\times6})(V)\\\\Area=\frac{5}{12}(V)

Now, area under the curve is equal to the distance travelled. So,

\frac{5}{12}(V)=100\\V=\frac{100\times12}{5}\\V=240\ km/h

Therefore, the maximum speed of the train is V=240\ km/h

P=32cm
A= 64cm^2

Step by Step

Formula(Perimeter): P=s+s+s+s
S=side P=perimeter
P=8*4
P=32

Formula(Area for Square): A=s^2
A=Area s=side
A=8^2

You have decided to start saving for college and open up a 529 account. You invest $5,000 into the account at a 2% interest rate
raketka [301]

You will have $5,525.39 after 5 years.

Because the interest is compounded monthly, you need to convert the interest rate and the term of investment to a monthly basis.

Monthly interest = 2% / 12 = 2/12%

Term of investment = 5 x 12 = 60 months

To find the amount you will have in 5 years, use the formula:

<em>Future value = Amount * ( 1 + interest) ^ term of investment </em>

= 5,000 x ( 1 + 2/12%)⁶⁰

= $5,525.39

In conclusion, your investment will have compounded to $5,525.39 in 5 years.
