Question 374756: Two trains leave the station at the same time, one heading east and the other west. The eastbound train travels

at 75 miles per hour. The westbound train travels at 95miles per hour. How long will it take for the two trains to be 238 miles apart?

Let the number of hours = X

Multiply the speed of each train by the number of hours (x) and add them together to equal the total miles:

75x + 95x = 238

Simplify:

170x = 238

Divide both sides by 170:

x = 238/170

x = 1.4 hours.

Check:

75 x 1.4 = 105 miles

95 x 1.4 = 133 miles

105 + 133 = 238 miles

It will take 1.4 hours ( 1 hour and 24 minutes).

Find tan 0.<br> (Marking brainliest if correct) <br><br> 8/17<br> 15/17<br> 15/8<br> 8/15
Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

15/8

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming you mean tan theta

Tan(theta) = opposite/adjacent

We know the adjacent side is 8 so the bottom of the fraction must also be 8

C: 15/8 is the only option that fits this criteria

How can you use addition and subtraction to put together and separate measures of an angle and its parts?
Oksanka [162]
We can use addition and subtraction <span>to put together and separate measures of an angle and its parts by looking for the complementary or the supplementary angles. 

For example, What is the other angle in a complementary angle in which one of the angles is 45 degrees. This is how should be answered. Ccomplementary angles are two angles that forms a total of 90 degrees.
90 = A + B
90 = 45 + B
B = 90 - 45
B = 45
