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

Write an expression to represent the perimeter of the figure below. rectangle with 2x-3 and x+2
In-s [12.5K]
Hi there! 

The perimeter is when you add all the sides of a shape. In a rectangle, two sides are the same, and so are the other two. So, if the two sides are 2x-3 and x+2 the expression will be: 

2(2x-3) + 2(x+2) 

If we were to simplify this, it would be 

4x-6+2x+4 
6x-2

Hope this helps!
