Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

8x-2y=48, replace y with 4, 8x-2(4)=48, multiply, 8x-8=48, add 8 to both sides to remove the -8, 8x=56 and finally divide by 8 to remove 8 from x, x=7.

at 1:30 in the afternoon an old freight train and a new dart express train pull out of the new garland station going in opposite

zalisa [80]

Answer:

$V_{E} = -22.5 / 15 = 1.5 miles/minute\\V_{F} = 7.5 / 15 = 0.5 miles/minute$

Step-by-step explanation:

To answer this problem, we must bear in mind that the express train travels 3 times faster than the freight train.

If we call F the distance that the freight train travels and we call E at the distance that the express train travels, we must have the distance between them after 15 minutes it must be 30 miles.

$F + E = 30\\$

We also know that:

$E = 3F$

Since the express train travels 3 times faster than the freight train.

So, like both equations, we have to:

$F + 3F = 30\\F = 30/4\\F = 7.5 miles\\$

Then $E = 7.5*3 = 22.5$ miles in the opposite direction.

This is the distance you traveled in 15 minutes.

Therefore, the speed of the express train ( $V_{E}$ ) is the distance traveled between the time it did

$V_{E} = -22.5 / 15 = 1.5 miles/minute\\V_{F} = 7.5 / 15 = 0.5 miles/minute$

A scientist measured 18 grams of

olya-2409 [2.1K]

Hence, option A 0.64 is the correct answer.

Further explanation:

Ounce is a larger unit than grams. When we have to go from a smaller unit to a larger unit we use division.

So,

Given

28.3 grams = 1 ounce

Then

$18\ grams=\frac{18}{28.3}=0.636=>0.64$

Hence, option A 0.64 is the correct answer.

Bad White [126]

Answer:

$266$ $\frac{2}{3}$ $yards$

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Approach

First, convert the dimensions of the room from feet to yards. Remember, the conversion rate between feet and yards is, $3feet=1yard$ . Next, find the area of the room by multiplying the length by the width.
