Time taken before they are 2640 feet is 146.67 seconds

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

The distance is given by formula:

distance = speed \times time

<em><u>Ton travels at 8 feet per second</u></em>

Let us assume, time taken = t

speed = 8 feet per second

Then, distance is given as:

Distance covered by Ton = 8t

<em><u>Bob travels at 10 feet per second</u></em>

Then, distance is given as:

Distance covered by Bob = 10t

How long will it take before they are 2640 feet

Which means,

Distance covered by Ton + Distance covered by Bob = 2640

8t + 10t = 2640\\\\18t = 2640\\\\Divide\ both\ sides\ of\ equation\ by\ 18\\\\t = 146.67

Thus time taken before they are 2640 feet is 146.67 seconds

<h3><u>Method 2:</u></h3>

Since trains are moving in opposite directions, their speeds must be added

speed = 8 + 10 = 18 feet per second

Given distance = 2640 feet

Therefore, time taken is:

time = \frac{distance}{speed}\\\\time = \frac{2640}{18} = 146.67 \text{ second }

Thus time taken before they are 2640 feet is 146.67 seconds

100% pure gold is 24 karat gold, which is too soft to be made into jewelry most call Jory is 14 karat gold proximally 58% gold 1
denis-greek [22]

Answer:

The amount of gold used in a 200 g 14 gold bracelet is 116 g.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since a 14 karat jewell is stated to have aproximally 58 % of it's weigh in gold we need to take the total weigh of the jewel in question and find that percentage of it's weigh. In order to find that percentage we'll first convert that number into a decimal, we do that by dividing it by 100, so we have 58% = 58/100 = 0.58 we can multiply this value by the weigh of the jewel to find the amount of gold used. So we have:

gold used = total weigh*0.58 = 200*0.58 = 116 g
