Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
this is confusing b/c they are asking about two trains traveling at differnt speeds, but.. if you put the speeds together and make one train... imaginary.. ofc... traveling at the speed of both trains combined... when will it be 50 miles from the station?
maybe you can solve that? I'll solve it below.. but.. if you can.. try it now, on your own
below is my answer... don't look until you have solved yours :P
80+70= 150kph
when will this have traveled 50Km?
you may be able to see that it will take 1/3 of an hour to travel 50 km
so 60 minutes times 1/3 = 20 minutes :)
R = kp/st
18 = 12k/(1/6 x 2)
18 = 12k/(1/3)
18 = 36k
k = 18/36 = 1/2
Answer:
1/3

Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
If you are allowed to use a graphing calculator, this can solve a lot of time. Graphing y = (x - 705)(x - 795) + 800(x - 750)(x - 835) gets us a parabola with x-intercepts of 749.97 and 834.924.
These roots are real and distinct, or choice B.
If you aren't allowed to use a graphing calculator, you can expand and combine like terms to get 801x^2 − 1269500x + 501560475. Looking at the discriminant, we see that (−1269500)^2 - 4*801*501560475 = 4630488100 is greater than 0 and not a perfect square, so it is real and distinct, or choice B.
I hope that helps!
