Two passenger trains 190 miles apart are headed toward each other on the same track—one at 50 mph and the other at 80 mph. Ironm

an responds to the danger by flying back and forth between the trains, hoping to stop them before disaster strikes. Unfortunately, when he reaches each train, an invisible force repulses him back, jolting him in the opposite direction (toward the other train).  If Ironman maintains a constant speed of 150 mph the entire time—while flying back and forth between the trains—how far will he have flown when the trains collide?

190-(50+80)t=0

190-130t=0

130t=190

t=19/13  so the trains will remain apart for 19/13 hours.

Since ironman is flying at a constant rate of 150mph he will fly:

150(19/13)≈219.23 miles in that time period while the trains are apart.

Trains headed for destination A arrive at the train station at 15-minute intervals tarting at 7am, where as trains headed for de
grandymaker [24]

Answer: a.) 2/3 ; b.) 7/12

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following details :

Destination A trains arrives at station at 15 minutes interval starting from 7am

Destination B trains arrives at station at 15 minutes interval starting from 7.05am

A.) if a passenger arrives at station uniformly between 7am and 8am and gets on first train. What proportion of time does the passenger leave from destination A?

To leave for destination A. The passenger has to arrive before train to A departs and after train to B leaves.

Train to B leaves, starting at at 7.05 a.m and at interval of 15 minutes

Train to A leaves at 7.00 am and at interval of 15 minutes.

Therefore,

(Train B departs - train A arrives) (between 7 to 8am)

(7.05 - 7.15) + (7.20 - 7.30) + (7.35 - 7.45) + (7.50 - 8.00) = 40 minutes

Total time = 7.00 - 8.00 = 60 minutes

(40 ÷ 60) = 2/3 or 0.667

B.) If passenger arrives uniformly between 7.10am - 8:10am

(7.10 - 7.15) + (7.20 - 7.30) + (7.35 - 7.45) + (7.50 - 8)

5 + 10 + 10 + 10 = 35

35/60 = 7/12 or 0.583
