alphabetsam had a good step by step explaination but they got the timing wrong.

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.

Determine if
Gnesinka [82]

The values of a and b are 1/4 and 1/5 respectively

<h3>How to determine the true statement?</h3>

The function is given as:

16x^2 - 25y^2 = 1

The above function is a horizontal hyperbola.

A horizontal hyperbola that passes through the origin is represented as:

\frac{x^2}{a^2} - \frac{y^2}{b^2} = 1

Rewrite 16x^2 - 25y^2 = 1 as

\frac{x^2}{1/16} - \frac{y^2}{1/25} = 1

By comparison, we have:

a^2 = \frac{1}{16}

b^2 = \frac{1}{25}

Solve for  a and b

a = \frac{1}{4}

b = \frac{1}{5}

Hence, the values of a and b are 1/4 and 1/5 respectively
