Step-by-step explanation:
Draw your figures the same way as I did, and see if you understand the explanations before writing them down. It's most important to learn from your work :)
Answer:
first do:
60mph * 4 hours= 240mi
Let D = the distance the passenger train has to
travel to catch the freight train
Start a stopwatch when the passenger train leaves
Let t = the time on the stopwatch when they meet
Equation for freight train:
d-240=60t
Equation for passenger train:
d=100t
all together:
100t-240=60t
we can do 100t-60t because they both have (t)= 40t
40t=240 *now divide 240 by 40= 6
THEN do:
D= 100mph x 6= 600mi
They will meet 600 mi from the station
to check:
d-240=60t x 6
600-240= 360
60 x 6= 360
360=360
Answer:
1.56%
Step-by-step explanation:
A standard deck of cards has 52 cards, and 13 of these are hearts, as there are 4 suits, and 52/4=13. This means the probability of choosing a heart card from a deck of cards is 1/4, or 25%. Now to find the probability of doing this from 3 decks in a row, we simply cube 1/4 to get 1/64, and in percentage this is ~1.56%.
