Answer:
You cannot gather an answer from this, it is in simplest form
Just divide it by 8 and get 1/8 but I’m not so sure that’s right
Let's define variables:
s = original speed
s + 12 = faster speed
The time for the half of the route is:
60 / s
The time for the second half of the route is:
60 / (s + 12)
The equation for the time of the trip is:
60 / s + 60 / (s + 12) + 1/6 = 120 / s
Where,
1/6: held up for 10 minutes (in hours).
Rewriting the equation we have:
6s (60) + s (s + 12) = 60 * 6 (s + 12)
360s + s ^ 2 + 12s = 360s + 4320
s ^ 2 + 12s = 4320
s ^ 2 + 12s - 4320 = 0
We factor the equation:
(s + 72) (s-60) = 0
We take the positive root so that the problem makes physical sense.
s = 60 Km / h
Answer:
The original speed of the train before it was held up is:
s = 60 Km / h
Answer:
Rational number
Step-by-step explanation:
Rational numbers are defined as the quotient (division result) of two integers
All you do is add them all together...
20 + 11.4 + 11.4 + 4.5 + 4.5 + 0.45 + 0.45 + 0.45 + 0.45 = 53.6Kg
(note that 0.45 is 450g in Kg, When adding things such as weight or length you want to make sure that they are all in the same unit)
