I also agree with answer C
Answer:
B. Train B
Step-by-step explanation:
We are told that Milford and Pinkerton is 300 miles away.
Train A leaves Milford at 10:00 am. There are 3 hours between 10:00 am to 1:00 pm. So let us find distance traveled by train A in 3 hours.
![\text{Distance traveled by train A}=90\frac{\text{ miles}}{\text{ hour}}\times 3\text{ hours}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Ctext%7BDistance%20traveled%20by%20train%20A%7D%3D90%5Cfrac%7B%5Ctext%7B%20miles%7D%7D%7B%5Ctext%7B%20hour%7D%7D%5Ctimes%203%5Ctext%7B%20hours%7D)
![\text{Distance traveled by train A}=90\times 3{\text{ miles}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Ctext%7BDistance%20traveled%20by%20train%20A%7D%3D90%5Ctimes%203%7B%5Ctext%7B%20miles%7D)
![\text{Distance traveled by train A}=270{\text{ miles}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Ctext%7BDistance%20traveled%20by%20train%20A%7D%3D270%7B%5Ctext%7B%20miles%7D)
Since train A will cover 270 miles in 3 hours and distance between Milford and Pinkerton is 300 miles, therefore, train A will not arrive Pinkerton before 1:00 pm.
Since there are 5 hours between 8:00 am to 1:00 pm, so let us find distance traveled by train B in 5 hours.
![\text{Distance traveled by train B}=70\frac{\text{ miles}}{\text{ hour}}\times 5\text{ hours}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Ctext%7BDistance%20traveled%20by%20train%20B%7D%3D70%5Cfrac%7B%5Ctext%7B%20miles%7D%7D%7B%5Ctext%7B%20hour%7D%7D%5Ctimes%205%5Ctext%7B%20hours%7D)
![\text{Distance traveled by train B}=70\times 5 \text{ miles}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Ctext%7BDistance%20traveled%20by%20train%20B%7D%3D70%5Ctimes%205%20%5Ctext%7B%20miles%7D)
Since train B will cover 350 miles in 5 hours, therefore, train B will arrive Pinkerton before 1:00 pm and option B is the correct choice.
answer:
a. scarf costs today = $6
b. scarf costs 3 days from now = $3
step-by-step explanation:
- 1/2 off means you would multiply the amount by 1/2 then subtract
a. original price of scarf: $12
12 X 1/2 = 6
12 - 6 = 6
— scarf costs today = $6
- do the same thing but this time it is a different number
b. 12 X 3/4 = 9
12 - 9 = 3
— scarf costs 3 days from now = $3
