Let t be time in hours.

Train A travels at 100 km per hour, so after t hours it will be 100t km from the station.

Train B travels at 160 km per hour, but it leaves the station one and a half hours later than train A, so its time is (t-1.5) hours. After (t-1.5) hours it will be 160(t-1.5) km from the station.

Train B will overtake train A when their distances from the station are equal.
100t=160(t-1.5) \\
100t=160t-240 \\
100t-160t=-240 \\
-60t=-240 \\
t=\frac{-240}{-60} \\
t=4

Train B will overtake train A after 4 hours since train A left the station. It left the station at 8:00, so train B will overtake it at 12:00.

EASY MATH!!! GIVING BRAINLIEST!!
musickatia [10]

Answer:

55

Step-by-step explanation:

So lets take our 50 dollars.

Next, take your increase of 5%. Remember, 5% is 0.05, and it is a increase of 5%, so we are multipling 50 by 1.05.

Before we start multiplying, lets recall that this occurs twice(2 years), but this doesnt mean we multiply 50 by 1.10. No, we just mutiply 50 by 1.05 2 times:

50*1.05

=

52.5

52.5*1.05

=

55.25

So your answer is 55 dollars(rounding down).

Hope this helps!

What is the slope of the line given (1,1) and (0,0)
yaroslaw [1]

The slope of the line passing the points (1, 1) and (0, 0) is 1

<h3>Slope of a line</h3>

The formula for calculating the slope of a line is expressed as

Slope = y2-y1/x2-x1

Given the coordinate points (1, 1) and (0, 0)

Substitute the given coordinate points

Slope = 0-1/0-1

Slope = -1/-1

Slope =1

Hence the slope of the line passing the points (1, 1) and (0, 0) is 1
