Answer:

2.6 hours ( or 2 hours 36 minutes).

Step-by-step explanation:

The combined speed is 70+80 = 150 mph.

Speed = distance / time,  so time = distance / speed.

So the time when they will meet

=  390 / 150

= 2.6 hours.

Answer:

Let's denote:

x: the time both trains traveled.

Then, we have:

70x + 80x = 390

=> 150x = 390

=> x = 390/150 = 2.6 hour

The hypotenuse of a 90-45-45 triangle is 20√2. What is the short leg and the long leg>
stepan [7]

Answer:

Both legs would be 20

Step-by-step explanation:
In the image below, it shows the relationship between the legs and the hypotenuse in every 45 45 90 triangle. If we know that the hypotenuse is 20, then the 2 legs are both 20.

I am slightly confused with the problem since they asked for the "short" leg and the "long" leg. Both legs should be the same length because a 45 45 90 triangle is isosceles, with the two legs being the same length.

What is the solution to the inequality below?
Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

B. x < -8 or x > 8

Step-by-step explanation:

You can use process of elimination to solve this problem by going through every solution and testing them out, but let's jump right to B.

Process:

You know that since the inequality states that x^2 has to be greater than 64, x  has to be more than 8, or less than -8.

This is because 8^2 = 64, and -8^2 = 64, and the inequality requires the answer to be more than 64.

Looking at B., you can see that if x is < -8, the square of, for example, -9, would be 81. This is greater than 64, so this works!

Now, B. also has an alternative. The 'or' is a major clue to which is the correct answer, since the square root of any number can be positive or negative. (-8^2 = 8^2)

The 'or' states that x must be greater than 8. So, for example, if we take the square of 10, we get 100, and that is also greater than 64.

We've proven that this solution is accurate for both parts, so it is definitely the one we want!

Hope this helps!
