Answer: C 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the formula: distance = rate x time

We can say that train 1 travels a distance of x, and train 2 travels a distance of 700 - x

The rate of train 1 is 75 mph, and the rate of train 2 is 100 mph

The time traveled for the two trains will be the same. We can represent that with the variable t.

We have the following equation for train 1:

x = 75t

For train 2, we have this equation:

700 - x = 100t

Use the Substitution Method by replacing x in the equation for train 2 with the value 75t.

700 - 75t = 100t

700 = 175t

700/175 = 4 hours.

It will take 4 hours for the two trains to meet.

What is the measure of angle c​
Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

Angle C=35 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle C is an external angle. So, we can use the external angle theorem and get the equation

Angle C= 1/2(100-30)

Angle C=1/2(70)

Angle C=35 degrees

A die is thrown. Describe the following events: (i) A: a number less than 7 (ii) B: a number greater than 7 (iii) C: a multiple
netineya [11]

A: The probability of a number rolling less than 7 is 100% or 1 because a dice only has numbers 1,2,3,4,5, and 6. 1,2,3,4,5, and 6 are all less than 7 so you are guaranteed to roll a number less than 7.

B: The probability of a number rolling more than 7 is 0% or 0 because a dice only has numbers 1,2,3,4,5, and 6. 1,2,3,4,5, and 6 are all less than 7 so it's not possible to roll a number more than 7.

C: The probability of a number rolling to be a multiple of three is 33.33(repeating)% or 1/3. Out of 1,2,3,4,5, and 6, the multiples of 3 are, 3 and 6. 3 and 6 is two numbers out of six numbers. 2 out of 6 simplifies to 1 out of 3.

D: The probability of a number rolling to be less than 4 is 50% of 1/2. Out of the numbers, 1,2,3,4,5, and 6, only 1,2, and 3 are less than 4. 1,2, and 3 is three numbers out of six numbers. 3 out of 6 simplifies to 1 out of 2.

E: The probability of a number rolling to be an even number greater than 4 is 0.166(repeating) or 1/6. Out of the numbers, 1,2,3,4,5, and 6, 2,4, and 6 are even numbers. Out of 2,4, and 6, only 6 is greater than 4. 4 is one number out of 1,2,3,4,5, and 6 (six numbers).

F: The probability of a number rolling to be a number not less than 3 is 50% or 1/2. "Not less than" actually means greater than. In the numbers, 1,2,3,4,5, and 6, only 4,5, and 6 are greater than 3. 4,5, and 6 are three numbers. 3 out of 6 simplifies to 1 out of 2.

I don't really know the answer to the last question but anyways I hope this helped! ♡
