Let s = northbound train
Then
2s = southbound train
:
Distance = time * speed
4s + 4(2s) = 600
:
4s + 8s = 600
:
12s = 600
:
s = 600/12
:
s = 50 mph is the northbound train
Then
2(50) = 100 mph is the southbound train
:
:
Check:
4(50) + 4(100) = 600

X + 2x = 600/4
x = 50
so one train is traveling 50 miles per hour
and the other is 100 miles per hour

4x+9xy-3xy=? I really need help please
Lesechka [4]

Answer:

6xy+4x

Step-by-step explanation: You start off by gathering the like terms (which are 9xy & -3xy) and then you just keep 4x there. You then subtract 9xy-3xy=6xy and bring down the 4 since it has no like terms. So it’s 6xy+4x.

Type the correct answer in the box. Round off your answer to the nearest integer.
Mkey [24]

Answer:

∠ p ≈ 59°

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Pythagoras' identity in right triangle ABD to find DB

DB² = 5² + 6² = 25 + 36 = 61 ( take square root of both sides )

DB = \sqrt{61}

---------------------------------------

Using the cosine ratio in right triangle DBC

cos p = \frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse} = \frac{DC}{DB} = \frac{4}{\sqrt{61} } , thus

p = cos^{-1} ( \frac{4}{\sqrt{61} } ) ≈ 59°

siniylev [52]
48 + (2*13) / 110
PE(MD)(AS)

2 * 13 = 26
48 + 26 / 110

26 / 110 = 0.236..
Rounded = 0.24

48 + 0.24 = 48.24….
