Answer:

80mph

Step-by-step explanation:

you add the time which is 3 and 2 1/4 hours. Then you look at the equation d = r/t. d = distance, r = rate, and t = time. Then you put them in there places like this, 420 = (2 1/4 + 3)/ r. 2 1/4 + 3 = 5.25. Then 420/5.25 to get 80 mph

Train A:

Distance (s) = 420 miles
Time (t) = 3 hours
Speed (v) = distance ÷ time = 420 ÷ 3 = 140 miles/hour

Train B: 

Distance (s) = 420 miles
Time (t) = 2.25 hours
Speed (v) = distance ÷ time = 420 ÷ 2.25 = 186.7 miles/hour

Using the slot method and multiple cases, calculate the probability that you would roll 3 sixes.
kotegsom [21]

Answer:

P = 1/216

the probability that you would roll 3 sixes is 1/216

Step-by-step explanation:

For a given dice, there are six possibilities.

We have;

1,2,3,4,5,6

The probability of rolling a six(6) is;

P(6) = 1/6

Then, the probability of rolling 3 sixes is a multiple of the P(6), given as;

P = P(6) × P(6) × P(6)

P = 1/6 × 1/6 × 1/6

P = 1/216

the probability that you would roll 3 sixes is 1/216

Two numbers are in the ratio 2:3 and their sum id 45 then find both numbers​
iragen [17]

Let the numbers be 2x and 3x.

<u>According to the Question</u>,

⇒ 2x + 3x = 45

⇒ 5x = 45

⇒ x = 45/5

⇒ x = 9

<u>Now finding the values of both the number,</u>

⇒ 2x = 2 × 9

= 18

⇒ 3x = 3 × 9

= 27

<u>Hence, the value of both the number is 18 and 27 respectively.</u>

Which is NOT a way to state the meaning of the expression x + 2?
lesya692 [45]

2x is not a way to express this. You could use 2 + x or x +2. But 2x is x multiplied by 2. x + 2 is x plus 2.

Answer:

Domain= (-inf,inf)/(-∞,∞)

Range= (-inf,25/16]

x-intercepts= (0,0), (5/4,0)

y-intercepts=(0,0)

vertex= maximum (5/8,25/16)
