Answer: the eastbound train had travelled 12 miles
Explanation: using Pythagoras theorem, we know that
X^2 = a^2 + b^2
Where ^ stands for raised to power.
Let
a stand for the train going towards North and
b stands for the train going towards east.
X stands for the total distance between train a and b = 20 miles.
By Pythagoras rule
X^2 = a^2 + b^2
20^2 = 16^2 + b^2
400 = 256 + b^2 so that
b^2 = 400 - 256 = 144
b = √144
b = 12 miles.
1) The larger number is 33.
2) Joan weighs 47.5 kg, and Annie weighs 44.5 kg.
3) Ronnie walks at a rate of 4 km/h, while Margie walks at a rate of 2 km/h.
4) It takes 3 hours for Lea to do the same task working alone.
5) Katie is 5 years old and Rico is 1 year old.
To solve each problem, the following calculations must be done:
1)
(54 - 12) / 2 = X
42 / 2 = X
21 = X
21 + 12 = 33
33 + 21 = 54
2)
(92 - 3) / 2 = X
89 / 2 = X
44.5 = X
44.5 + 3 = 47.5
44.5 + 47.5 = 92
3)
1000 / 3 x 2 = 666.666
0.666 x 6 = 3.999
0.333 x 6 = 1.999
4)
1/5 + 1/X = 1/2
10/5 + 10/X = 10/2
2 + X = 5
X = 5 - 2
X = 3
5)
5 /// 1
8 /// 4
