Y=kx
-5=k(15)
-5/15=k
-1/3=k
now,
y=-1/5x
3=-1/5x
3×5=-1(x)
15=-1(x)
multiplying both sides by -1,we get
-15=x
Answer: the rate of speed for train A is 66 miles per hour.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the speed of train B.
2 trains leave the station at the same time. Train A is traveling 16 miles per hour slower than train B. This means that the speed of train A would be x - 16 miles per hour.
The two trains are 720 miles apart after 4 hours. It means that both trains traveled a total distance of 720 miles in 4 hours.
Distance = speed × time
Distance travelled by train A after 4 hours is
4(x - 16) = 4x - 64
Distance travelled by train B after 4 hours is
4 × x = 4x
Since the total distance travelled by both trains is 720 miles, then
4x - 64 + 4x = 720
8x = 720 - 64 = 656
x = 656/8 = 82 miles per hour
The speed of train A would be
82 - 16 = 66 miles per hour.
Answer:
3×5×53
Step-by-step explanation:
You can use divisibility rules to find the small prime factors.
The number ends in 5, so is divisible by 5.
795/5 = 159
The sum of digits is 1+5+9 = 15; 1+5 = 6, a number divisible by 3, so 3 is a factor.
159/3 = 53 . . . . . a prime number,* so we're done.
795 = 3×5×53
_____
* If this were not prime, it would be divisible by a prime less than its square root. √53 ≈ 7.3. We know it is not divisible by 2, 3, or 5. We also know the closest multiples of 7 are 49 and 56, so it is not divisible by 7. Hence 53 is prime.
The correct answer would be B because it is is written in correct simplified format
