Answer:

Time taken by train in onward journey = 12 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Speed of train making a trip to a repair = 25 mph

Speed of train on return trip = 20 mph

Time taken for return trip = 15 hours

To find the time taken on the on wards trip.

Solution:

The distance traveled by the train on the trip and return trip is the same as the y are of same trips in opposite directions.

Distance can be calculated by using the data for the return trip.

Distance= Speed\times Time

Distance= 20\ mph\times 15\ h=300\ miles

Speed of train for on ward trip = 25 mph

Time taken = \frac{Distance}{Speed}

Time taken = \frac{300\ miles}{25\ mph}= 12\ h

Thus, time taken by train in onward journey = 12 hours.

What is the discriminant of the equation 3x^2-4=2x
elixir [45]
<h3><u>Answer</u> :</h3>

Given equation : 3x² - 4 = 2x

We have to find discriminant of the equation .

⭆ 3x² - 4 = 2x

⭆ 3x² - 2x - 4 = 0

By comparing this equation with ax²+bx+c, we get

  • a = 3
  • b = -2
  • c = -4

Discriminant (D) = b² - 4ac

⭆ D = (-2)² - 4(3)(-4)

⭆ D = 4 + 48

⭆<u> D = 52</u>

There are 28.35 grams in an ounce and 2.21 pounds in a kilogram. Miriam converted 7 kilograms to ounces, but her answer is not c
sergejj [24]

Answer: OPTION C.

Step-by-step explanation:

For this exercise it is important to remember the following:

1\ kilogram=1,000\ grams

Knowing this and based on the information provided in the exercise, you can make the conversion from kilograms to ounces. This is:

(7\ Kg)(\frac{1,000\ gr}{1\ Kg})(\frac{1\ oz}{28.35\ gr})=246.913\ oz

According to the exercise, Miriam's procedure was:

 (7\ Kg)(\frac{1,000\ gr}{1\ Kg})(\frac{28.35\ gr}{1\ oz})= 198,450\ oz

So you can identify that she made a mistake.

Notice that:

1. Miriaim multiplied correctly.

2. Butt the third fraction should be \frac{1\ oz}{28.35\ gr} and not \frac{28.35\ gr}{1\ oz}.
