X=first train speed
y=second train speed

sum of speeds is 725.2
x+y=725.2

x is 10.8 more than y
x=10.8+y

subsitute 10.8+y for x


10.8+y+y=725.2
10.8+2y=725.2
minus 10.8 from both sides
2y=714.4
divide both sides by 2
y=357.2
x=10.8+y
x=10.8+375.2
x=386


the speed of first train is 386mph
second train is 357.2mph

AVprozaik [17]
So you want height to be 0 so you plug zero into the height and solve from there. You subtract 192 from both sides to get -192=-16tsquared. Then you would divide by -16 and end up with 12 = t^2. Then you find the square root of 12 and get t = 3.464 seconds.

The sum of two numbers is with a ratio of 15:10. Find the larger number.
arsen [322]
Assume the sum is 100. The ratio of the two numbers is 15:10. This means that we can divide this indow 15+10, or 25 parts. Let us do that. Divide 100 into 25 parts and see how much is in each part. 100/25 is 4, meaning that there is 4 in each part. 15 parts will have 15*4, or 60. 10 parts will have 10*4, or 40. To confirm, add 40 and 60. It matches with what we started out with, 100. 


The two numbers, assuming the sum is 100, are 40 and 60. 60 is the greater value.
