Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let +s+ = the speed of the passenger train

+s+-+20%5D+ = the speed of the freight train

Let +t+ = time in hours for both trains

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

Equation forpassenger train:

(1) +280+=+s%2At+

Equation for freight train:

(2) +180+=+%28+s-20+%29%2At+

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

(1) +t+=+280%2Fs+

Substitute (1) into (2)

(2) +180+=+%28+s-20+%29%2A%28+280%2Fs+%29+

(2) +180s+=+280s+-+5600+

 

(2) +100s+=+5600+

(2) +s+=+56+

and

+s+-+20+=+36+

The speed of the passenger train is 56 mi/hr

The speed of the freight train is 36 mi/hr

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

check:

(1) +280+=+56%2At+

(1) +t+=+5+

and

(2) +180+=+%28+56-20+%29%2At+

(2) +180+=+36t+

(2) +t+=+5+

OK

Answer:

165 is greater than or equal to 17.75x+5.25; 9 is greater than or equal to x

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem states that they have no more than $165. This means that they either use all the money, or they have leftover money, which means you need to use the 'greater than or equal to' sign. It says that tickets are $17.75 a person, and we're trying to find the number of people (x). You can write this as 17.75x. There is also a parking fee to add on to the equation, which is represented as +5.25. Now, we can solve!

I'm going to use an equal sign to replace the inequality symbol, but make sure to add the symbol at the end of the problem.

165=17.75x+5.25

159.75=17.75x

9=x

Our final answer is 9 is greater than or equal to x. Hope this helps!
