Answer: C 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the formula: distance = rate x time
We can say that train 1 travels a distance of x, and train 2 travels a distance of 700 - x
The rate of train 1 is 75 mph, and the rate of train 2 is 100 mph
The time traveled for the two trains will be the same. We can represent that with the variable t.
We have the following equation for train 1:
x = 75t
For train 2, we have this equation:
700 - x = 100t
Use the Substitution Method by replacing x in the equation for train 2 with the value 75t.
700 - 75t = 100t
700 = 175t
700/175 = 4 hours.
It will take 4 hours for the two trains to meet.
I’m RIGHT here how can I help, there is no photo.
hi
x- 3/5 = 5x/ 6
6x - 18/5 = 5x
6x -5x = 18/5
x = 18/5
let's check : 18/5 - 3/5 = 15/5 = 3
5 * 18/5 / 6 = 18/6 = 3
result is correct.
The only correct statements are the second one and the last one.
