Since the first train has been travelling for 3 hours, we have the following equations:
d=50t+3*50=50t+150
d=60t

We want to know when they will be equal, so set these equal to eachother:
60t=50t+150
10t=150
t=15

So 15 hours after the second train leaves, they will be at the same distance. This is at 8AM since the second train leaves at 5PM.

Anastasy [175]

We divide the pennies 100 to convert pennies to dollar

1 pennies= 1/100 dollar

Then we will convert 6.02×10∧23 p to dollar

=1 dollar/100 pennie ×6.02×10∧23

= 6.02×10∧21

The total men and women and children in 250 m  

=25×108

6.02×10∧21/2.5×10∧8

= 2.408×10∧13
