Yuto and Lian are at train stations 1,880 kilometers apart. Yuto boards a train heading east at an average speed of 220

Doss [256]

Answer:

1,000 km

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume that when two train pass each other, Lian has traveled x (km)

=> The time Lian has traveled when two trains pass each other is:

Time = Distance/ Rate = x/ 250 (hour)

As Lian and Yuto travelled from the two opposite train stations and the train stations are 1,880 km apart

=> When two train pass each other, Yuto has traveled 1,880 - x (km)

=> The time Yuto has traveled when two trains pass each other is:

Time = Distance/ Rate = (1,880 - x)/220 (hour)

As Lian and Yuto board at the same time, so that when two trains pass each other, the time both of them have traveled is equal

=> x/ 250 = (1,880 - x)/220

=> 220x = 250 x (1,880 -x)

=> 220x = 470,000 - 250x

=> 470x = 470,000

=> x = 1,000

So that, when two train pass each other, Lian has traveled x = 1,000 km

The symbol ₁₂P₉ represents the permutations of 9 quantities out of 12.
By definition,
$_{12}P_{9} = \frac{12!}{(12-9)!} = \frac{12!}{3!}$

From the calculator,
12! = 479,001,600
3! = 6

Therefore
₁₂P₉ = 479001600/6 = 79,833,600

Answer: 79,833,600

Let HH represent the number of hummingbirds and SS represent the number of sunbirds that must pollinate the colony so it can sur

Nikitich [7]

Answer: 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Here the given inequality that shows the number of humming birds(H) and the number of sunbirds(S) that must pollinate the colony so it can survive until next year,

6 H + 4 S > 74

If This year, 8 hummingbirds pollinated the colony.

By putting H=8 in the above inequality,

We get,

6× 8 + 4 S > 74

⇒ 48 + 4 S > 74

⇒ 4 S > 26

⇒ S > 6.5

Hence the least number of sunbirds is 7.
