Answer:

20 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the train left for London, and after 9 hours later, a car traveling 80 miles per hour tried catching up to the train. After 3 hours, the car caught up

Which means that the car travelled the same distance in 3 hours as the train travelled in 9 + 3 = 12 hours

Let the distance be d

Given the speed of car is 80 miles per hour

We know that speed=\frac{distance }{time}

80=\frac{d}{3}

d = 240 miles

Now for the train Average speed = total distance / total time taken

Average speed of the train = \frac{240}{12} = 20 miles per hour

PLEASE HELP
xeze [42]

Answer:

-4

Step-by-step explanation:

So we are given the expression: | y - x | + y - 1, and we have our values for (x,y): (-3,-6).

So, we can just start plugging things in and simplifying, so:

| -6 + 3 | - 6 - 1 = | -3 | -7

                       = 3 - 7

                       = -4

Chose one value for x and substitute the value in the equation to get your answer pick x=15 or x=12 or x=10 2x+13
lora16 [44]
If I pick 10, then 2(10)+13=33
If I pick 15, then 2(15)+13=43
If I pick 12, then 2(12)+13=37
