Assume Josh made X cupcakes; Alice made Y cupcakes; Tom made Z cupcakes.
Josh made 10 more cakes than Alice so,
X = Y + 10 ---- 1st Eqn.

Alice made 8 more than Tom so,
Y= Z+8 --- 2nd Eqn.

Total cakes = 62 so,
X+Y+Z = 62 ---- 3rd Eqn.

by solving three equations we get X= 30; Y= 20; Z=12.
So Tom made 12 cupcakes

Train a And train b leave Central Station at the same time they travel the same speed but in opposite direction with a train a h

kramer

Answer:

Both trains are traveling at 90 miles per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that the rate is the same for both trains, and we know that the distance traveled by train a plus the distance traveled by train b equals 585 miles.

We will use $Distance=Rate* Time$ formula to solve this problem.

Train A: $D_a=R*2.5$ (Using 2.5 instead of 2 and 1/2)

Train B: $D_b=R*4$

We can set an equation to solve for rate R of trains as:

$D_a+D_b=585$

$2.5R+4R=585$

$6.5 R=585$

$R=\frac{585}{6.5}$

$R=90$

Therefore, rate of both train a and train b is 90 miles per hour.

Rewrite the following equation in slope intercept 7x + 11y = 10

viva [34]

We can do this by subtracting 7x from both sides, getting us:
11y= -7x+10.
We can then divide both sides by 11, giving our final answer:
y = -7/11x+10/11.
Hope this helped!
