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

The resting heart rate of an adult is usually about 60 beats per minute. Use your completed table to find approximately how many
Fofino [41]

if 60 beats = 1 minute, and a minute is 60 seconds then 1,000,000 beats has to be divided by 60 = 16667 rounded to the nearest hundred thousand and divide that by 1440 (How many seconds in a day) = 11.574 days.


That equates to 11days, 13hours, 46 min, and 40 sec
