Answer:
5 hours
Explanation:
Let the required time be x hours. The time will be the same for both cars.
The cars will cover different distances because they are travelling at different speeds.
<em>D=S×T
</em>
The distance travelled by the slower car = 50×x miles.
The distance travelled by the faster car = 58×x miles.
The two distances differ by 40 miles.
58x−50x=40
8x=40
x=5 hours
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A second method:
The difference in the distances is 40 miles
The difference in the speeds is #8mph.
The time to make up the 40 miles=
=5 hours
To answer, evaluate the power of 10 in the given choices. If it is positve, move the decimal n places to the right. If it is negative, move the decimal n corresponding places to the left. From all the choices given, only the choices D, E, and F will give us the correct answer.
Convex lenses are thicker at the centers than the edges, they are known as the converging lenses. Rays of light that pass through the lens are brought closer together (they converge). When rays of light that are parallel pass through a convex lens they are refracted, the refracted rays converge at one point called the principal focus.
