Train a leaves new york at 9am eastern time on monday, headed for los angeles at a constant rate of 40 miles per hour. on the sa

me 3,000-mile stretch of track, train b leaves los angeles at noon eastern time on monday, traveling to new york at its constant rate of 60 miles per hour, with one exception: train b is delayed for exactly 2 hours in las vegas (approximately 200 miles from los angeles) due to track maintenance. assuming the time it takes for train b to decelerate and re-accelerate when stopping and resuming in las vegas is negligible, at what time (eastern time) will the two trains meet?

We can assume that B leaves Los Angeles not at noon but at 2pm Eastern Time, so 5 hours later than A leaves New York.

In 5 hours A covers 5*40=200 miles. So, A and B together should cover 3,000-200=2,800 miles.

Combined rate = 40 + 60 = 100 miles per hour.

To cover 2,800 miles they'll need 2,800/100=28 hours.

2pm Eastern Time on Monday + 28 hours = 6pm Eastern Time on Tuesday.

Answer: 6:00pm on Tuesday

there is a beaker of 3.5% acid solution and a beaker of 6% acid solution in the science lab. Mr. Larson needs 200ml of 4.5% acid
disa [49]
Below are the choices:

A. 80 mL of the 3.5% solution and 120 mL of the 6% solution 

<span>B. 120 mL of the 3.5% solution and 80 mL of the 6% solution </span>

<span>C. 140 mL of the 3.5% solution and 60 mL of the 6% solution </span>

<span>D. 120 mL of the 3.5% solution and 80 mL of the 6% solution
</span>
Let fraction of 3.5% in final solution be p. 

<span>p * 3.5 + (1 - p) * 6 = 4.5 </span>

<span>3.5p + 6 - 6p = 4.5 </span>

<span>2.5p = 1.5 </span>

<span>p = 3/5 </span>

<span>3/5 * 200 = 120 </span>

<span>Therefore the answer is B. 120 ml of 3.5% and 80 ml of 6%.</span>
