Answer:
Train A - 50 miles per hour
train B - 30 miles per hour
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x mph be the speed of the train B, then the speed of the train A is (x+20) mph.
In 3 hours,
- train A travels 3(x+20) miles
- train B travels 3x miles
In total, they covered the distance of 240 miles, so
![3(x+20)+3x=240\ \ \ \text{[Divide by 3]}\\ \\x+20+x=80\\ \\2x=80-20\\ \\2x=60\\ \\x=30\ mph\\ \\x+20=30+20=50\ mph](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=3%28x%2B20%29%2B3x%3D240%5C%20%5C%20%5C%20%5Ctext%7B%5BDivide%20by%203%5D%7D%5C%5C%20%5C%5Cx%2B20%2Bx%3D80%5C%5C%20%5C%5C2x%3D80-20%5C%5C%20%5C%5C2x%3D60%5C%5C%20%5C%5Cx%3D30%5C%20mph%5C%5C%20%5C%5Cx%2B20%3D30%2B20%3D50%5C%20mph)
4 significant figures. All figures are significant because the zeros are in between two significant digits
Of 5 out of 12 (5/12) are sports games and 3 out of 12 (3/12) are educational, then you would add these together because you need a total for both because it would include one or the other, so both.
5/12 + 3/12= 8/12 or 2/3 are one or the other.
