<u>Answer:</u>

It will take 2 hours 36 minutes for the two trains to meet.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

The distance between the two trains is decreasing by 95+115= 210miles per hour, which can be written as \frac{210 miles}{1 hour}.

So at this rate, the distance between the trains will be reduced to zero in:

\frac{546 miles}{\frac{210 miles}{1 hour} } = 476 miles * \frac{1 hour}{210 miles}

= \frac{546}{210} = 2.6 hours

Changing 2.6 hours to hours and minutes:

2 hours + 0.6 hours = 2 hours + (0.6 * 60) = 2 hours + 36 minutes

Therefore, it will take 2 hours 36 minutes for the two trains to meet.

Answer:

Total area = 31.5 unit²

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume 1 block = 1 unit²

Divide diagram into 3 part

1. 5 by 5 block square

2. 2 by 2 block triangle(1)

2. 3 by 3 block triangle(2)

Area of square = side × side

Area of square = 5 × 5

Area of square = 25 unit²

Area of triangle(1) = [1/2][base][height]

Area of triangle(1) = [1/2][2][2]

Area of triangle(1) = 2 unit²

Area of triangle(2) = [1/2][base][height]

Area of triangle(2) = [1/2][3][3]

Area of triangle(2) = 4.5 unit²

Total area = Area of square + Area of triangle(1) +Area of triangle(2)

Total area = 25 unit² + 2 unit² + 4.5 unit²

Total area = 31.5 unit²
