Answer:
the cyclists rode at 35 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming that the cyclists stopped, and accelerated instantaneously at the same speed than before but in opposite direction , then
distance= speed*time
since the cyclists and the train reaches the end of the tunnel at the same time and denoting L as the length of the tunnel :
time = distance covered by cyclists / speed of cyclists = distance covered by train / speed of the train
thus denoting v as the speed of the cyclists :
7/8*L / v = L / 40 mph
v = 7/8 * 40 mph = 35 mph
v= 35 mph
thus the cyclists rode at 35 mph
Answer:
-5 divide by 28
Step-by-step explanation:
so the question supposed be " 15-20 divided by 2(4) + 20
15-20 which is also 15 + (-20)= -5
2(4)=8, 8+20=28
so it can simplify into -5 / 28

Answer:
x = 
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
3x - 
= - 
Multiply through by 10, the lcm of 5 and 2 to clear the fractions
30x - 8 = - 5 ( add 8 to both sides )
30x = 3 ( divide both sides by 30 )
x = 
=
First, distribute the negative sign and get -y + 7 = 14
then subtract 7 from both sides and get -y = 7
Divide both sides by -1 and get y = -7
