Answer: it will take them 4 hours to be 640 kilometers apart.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let t represent the time it will take for both trains to be 640 kilometers apart. It means that the total distance that both trains will covered in t hours is 640 kilometers.

Distance = speed × time

A train leaves Little Rock Arkansas and travels north at 75 kilometers per hour. Distance covered after t hours would be 75 × t = 75t

Another train leaves at the same time and travels south at 85 kilometers per hour. Distance covered after t hours would be 85 × t = 85t

Since the total distance covered is 640 kilometers, then

75t + 85t = 640

160t = 649

t = 640/160

t = 4 hours

You invested money in two funds. Last year, the first fund paid a dividend of 9% and the second a dividend of 3%, and you receiv
Elden [556K]
If the amount of money you invested in the first fund is x and the second fund y, then 9% (or 0.09 by moving the decimal 2 spots)*x+0.03*y=1047 since the first fund paid 9% and the second 3%. In addition, for this year, we get 
0.1*x+0.01*y=811. 
We also have 0.09*x+0.03*y=1047, so we can multiply the top equation by -3 and add it to the second to get -0.21x=-1386. Dividing both sides by -0.21, we get x=6600. In addition, since 0.1*x+0.01*y=811, we can plug 6600 in for x to get 660+0.01*y=811 and by subtracting 660 from both sides we get 0.01*y=151. Multiplying both sides by 100 (since 0.01*100=1), we get y=15100
