Answer:

The gradient of Line L = $\frac{2}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for K is:

=> 2y+3x-5 = 0

Arranging it in the form of slope-intercept equation:

=> $y = -\frac{3}{2} x+\frac{5}{2}$

Since, Line L is perpendicular to Line K, The gradient of it would be the negative reciprocal of this gradient and multiplying both gives the result of -1.

So,

The gradient of Line L = $\frac{2}{3}$

two trains leave stations 210 miles apart at the same time and travel tword each other. one train at 85 miles per hour while the

hodyreva [135]

recall your d = rt, distance = rate * time.

let's say we have two trains, A and B, A is going at 85 mph and B at 65 mph.

they are 210 miles apart and moving toward each other, at some point they will meet, when that happens, the faster train A has covered say d miles, and the slower B has covered then the slack from 210 and d, namely 210 - d.

When both trains meet, A has covered more miles than B because A is faster, however the time both have been moving, is the same, say t hours.

$\bf \begin{array}{lcccl} &\stackrel{miles}{distance}&\stackrel{mph}{rate}&\stackrel{hours}{time}\\ \cline{2-4}&\\ \textit{Train A}&d&85&t\\ \textit{Train B}&210-d&65&t \end{array}\\\\ \dotfill\\\\ \begin{cases} \boxed{d}=85t\\ 210-d=65t\\[-0.5em] \hrulefill\\ 210-\boxed{85t}=65t \end{cases} \\\\\\ 210=150t\implies \cfrac{210}{150}=t\implies \cfrac{7}{5}=t\implies \stackrel{\textit{one hour and 24 minutes}}{1\frac{2}{5}=t}$
