100=25*4, so the other side needs to be multiplied by 4. 14*4=56. it's 56.

A train from Portland, Oregon, to Los Angeles, California, travels at an average speed of 60 miles per hour and covers a distanc

seropon [69]

Answer:

The train need to leave Portland at 03:27 am

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find out how long it takes the train to travel from Portland, Oregon, to Los Angeles, California

Remember that

The speed is equal to divide the distance by the time

The time is equal to divide the distance by the speed

Let

s ---> the speed in miles per hour

d ---> the distance in miles

t ---> the time in hours

$t=\frac{d}{s}$

we have

$d=963\ mi$

$s=60\ mi/h$

substitute

$t=\frac{963}{60}=16.05\ hours$

step 2

Adds 30 minutes (time it takes to get from the train station to her aunt's house)

Remember that

$30\ minutes=0.50\ hours$

$16.05+0.50=16.55\ hours$

Convert to minutes

$16.55\ h=16.55(60)\ min=993\ min$

step 3

Remember that

$8 p.m=20:00\ hrs$

Convert to minutes

$20(60)=1,200\ min$

Subtract 993 minutes from 1,200 minutes

$1,200-993=207\ min$

Convert to hours+minutes

$207\ min=207/60=3.45\ hours$

$0.45\ h=0.45(60)=27\ min$

$3\ h+27\ min$

$00:00 + 03:27=03:27\ am$

therefore

The train need to leave Portland at 03:27 am

The distance Max's bike moves is directly proportional to how many rotations his bike's crank shaft has

Gemiola [76]

Answer:

187.5 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

Max's bike moves 25 feet after two rotations

using proportion

Find out how many feet will the bike move after 15 rotations

Let

x ----> the distance in feet

$\frac{25}{2}\frac{ft}{rev}=\frac{x}{15}\frac{ft}{rev}\\\\x=15(25)/2\\\\x=187.5\ ft$

Someone please help me with this question! How can I prove it?

Alex73 [517]

Answer:

TS=QV

Step-by-step explanation:

To prove SAS congruence, you need to prove that two lines and the angle between them are all respectively equal.

In the diagrams we already have RS=WV and ∠RST=∠WVQ, so it follows that we need to prove that TS=QV.

11 less than 7 times a number is 5 more than 6 times the number. find the number.

kolezko [41]

Let's translate the words into expressions:

11 less than 7 times a number is $7x-11$

5 more than 6 times the number is $6x+5$

So we have the equation

$7x-11 = 6x+5$

Subtract 6x from both sides:

$x - 11 = 5$

Add 11 to both sides:

$x=16$
