Write the equation of the first train: x = 12t
Write the equation of the second train: y = -20t+72, assuming the train one is at the origins when t = 0.
Now solve the equation: 12t=-20t+72,
32t = 72, then t = 2.25 hours. The two train meet after 2.25 hours.
Now the equation of the <span>pigeon is like this: x = 48t.
</span>Then for t = 2.25, we get

The Hyde has flown 108 km when the trains meet.</span>
Answer:
x=-2
Step-by-step explanation:
Given points are (-2,2) and (-2,-3).
Now we need to find equation of the line passing through the given points.
So let's begin by finding slope

which is undefined. That means graph of the line must be vertical as you can see that in given points, x-value is not changing.
Equation of vertical line is given by x=k where k is the fixed value of x-coordinate.
x-coordinate is -2 in given points.
Hence final equation is x=-2.
Answer:
in 25 weeks the stalk grew to 4 inches - false
the stalk grew to a height of 25 inches in 4 weeks - true
each bag can hold 25 cornstalks - cannot be determined
the stalk grew at a rate of 6.25 inches each week - true (25/4 = 6.25)
the quotient 25/4 equals the growth rate of the stalks each week - true
