Answer:
B.
Step-by-step explanation:
We could use the Pythagorean theorem for this kind of problem I think:
A^2 + B^2 = C^2
6^2 + 16^2 = C^2
36 + 256 = C^2
292 = C^2
17.08 = C
C = 17.1 to the nearest tenth
Sorry if it’s wrong and glad I could help if it’s right ❤️❤️ Take care!
The cordent plan of the answer is 2
T=time
d=st
r=train speed
p=plane speed
<span>160=rt
</span><span>720=pt
speed of plan is 20kmph less than 5 times speed of train
p=5r-20
we notice that 160 times 4.5=720
times first equaton by 4.5
720=4.5rt
720=pt
set equal
4.5rt=pt
divide both sides by t
4.5r=p
sub </span><span>p=5r-20 for p
4.5r=5r-20
minus 4.5r from both sides
0=0.5r-20
add 20 to both sides
20=0.5r
times 2 both sides
40=r
sub back</span><span>
p=5r-20
p=5(40)-20
p=200-20
p=180
plane is 180kmph
train is 40kmph
</span>
It would be 550x10 (5 tens = 50)
so you would solve for 550
<u> x10</u>
5500
