Let n =  the hours elapsed when the two trains are 660 miles apart.


Let the first train travel east and the second train travel west.

The distance traveled by the first train is

x = (50 mi/h)*(n h) = 50n mi


The distance traveled by the second train is

y = (60 mi/h)*(n h) = 60n h


The distance between the two trains after n hours is

x + y = 50 n + 60n = 110n mi


Because this distance is 660 miles, therefore

110n = 660

n = 6 hours


Answer: 6 hours


I hope this helps. Sorry it took so long

Which of the following point-slope form equations could be produced with the points (4, 5) and (-3, -5)?
NikAS [45]

Answer:

<em>Equation; y = 1 3 / 7x - 5 / 7</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

First consider the slope of this equation we must derive;

Slope Formula = Rise / Run,

y2 - y1 / x2 - x1 ⇒

5 - ( - 5 ) / 4 - ( - 3 ) ⇒

10 / 7 ⇒ Slope : 1 3 / 7

So far we can formulate an equation as such;

y = 1 3 / 7 * x + b, <em>where b ⇒ y - intercept</em>

Given one of the points, substitute into this equation solving for b;

5 = 1 3 / 7 * ( 4 ) + b,

5 = 40 / 7 + b,

b = - 5 / 7

From this we can derive one point - slope from equation to be :

<em>Equation; y = 1 3 / 7x - 5 / 7</em>
