Recall your d = rt, distance = rate * time
so... one train goes west and the goes the opposite way... alrite... so... notice, by the time 338 miles have been covered by both, it will have been "t" hours, and whatever "t" is, is the same amount of time the westbound train has been running as well as the eastbound train has been running.
now, let's say, since by "t" hours they've covered 338 altogether, so, if the westbound train has covered say "d" miles, then the eastbound train would have covered the slack from 338 and d, that is, "338 - d".
so, 2hours and 36 minutes.
Answer:
50%
Step-by-step explanation:
If there are 4 parts to the spinner, 4 is the whole. Since there are 2 even numbers (2&4), the fraction would be 
, which is simplified to 
. And because could also turn into 
, the percentage is 50%.
Hope this helps :)
<span>erry starts rowing at 2 pm from the west end of the lake, and Tao starts rowing from the east end of the lake at 2:05 pm.
------
Terry DATA:
rate = 60 meter/min ; time = x min ; distance = r*t = 60x meters
-----
Tao DATA:
rate = 40 meter/min ; time = x-5 min ; distance = r*t = 40(x-5) meters
--------------------------
If they always row directly towards each other at what time will the two meet?
------
Equation:
dist + dist = 2000 meters
60x + 40(x-5) = 2000
20x = 1800
x = 90 minutes

Answer:
x^-5 = x to the power of negative 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Which of these is equivalent to 1 over x to the power of 5 ?
Mathematically this is expressed as
(1/x)⁵
We have a rule when it comes to expressing power
(1/a)^b = a^-b
Hence, applying this rule to our question
(1/x)⁵ = (1/x)^5
= x^-5
This is written in words as:
x to the power of negative 5
Answer:
7%
11%
5%
14%
Step-by-step explanation:
To find a numbers percentage of another number you simply divide the smaller number by the bigger number then move the decimal point to the right 2 places.
Percentage of workers who prefer chicken soup who are part-time: 35÷500 = 0.07 move the decimal 2 to the right to get 7%.
Percentage of full-time workers who prefer mushroom soup: 55÷500 = 0.11 move the decimal 2 to the right to get 11%.
Percentage of workers who prefer lintel soup who are full-time: 25÷500 = 0.05 move the decimal 2 to the right to get 5%.
Percentage of part-time workers who prefer tomato soup: 70÷500 = 0.14 move the decimal 2 to the right to get 14%.
Hope this helps! :)
