Answer:

No, modern train cannot travel on old railroad.

Step-by-step explanation:

In rail transport, track gauge is the spacing of the rails on a railway track and is measured between the inner faces of the load-bearing rails.

Most of the modern train are based on broad gauge. The separation in broad gauge is about 5 ft and 6 inches and in the standard gauge the separation between the tracks is 4 ft and 8\frac{1}{2} inches. So for the modern train it is not possible to travel on the tracks whose separation is no more than 4.5 feet.

I need the answer to this with the steps, that’d help me out so much thank you❤️.

Answer: The dimensions of the frame:.

W= 2√10 or about 6.3245 inches

L= 4√10 or about 12.6491 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

This would be so much easier if the area of the box was 72. Then the dimensions of the frame would be 6 × 12. So just a little bit larger and more complicated.

Here the equation is w(2w)=80

2w^2 = 80 (2w is easier to work with than L/2).

w^2=40 (^2 means squared)

√w^2 = √40 square root of both sides: Factor 40. Take out√4

W = √4*10

W= 2√10

L= 2w = 4√10

6.3245 × 12.6491 = 80

6-8x=7x-10x-24 solve for x
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

6−8x=7x−10x−24

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

6−8x=7x−10x−24

6+−8x=7x+−10x+−24

−8x+6=(7x+−10x)+(−24)(Combine Like Terms)

−8x+6=−3x+−24

−8x+6=−3x−24

Step 2: Add 3x to both sides.

−8x+6+3x=−3x−24+3x

−5x+6=−24

Step 3: Subtract 6 from both sides.

−5x+6−6=−24−6

−5x=−30

Step 4: Divide both sides by -5.

−5x/-5 = -30 /-5

x=6
