The distance between the trains is changing at the rate of (70 -60) = 10 mph. They will be in the same place (45 mi)/(10 mi/h) = 4.5 hours after they leave their respective cities. They will be 10 miles apart both 1 hour before that time and one hour after that time.
The trains will be 10 miles apart 3.5 hours after leaving.
They will be 10 miles apart the second time 5.5 hours after leaving.
Answer:
Western U gets 20 million
Norther U gets 40 million
Eastern U gets 50 million
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to find the amount each university gets.
Let
Northern U get n
Western U get w
Eastern U get e
We can write equations from the given word problem:
n + w + e = 110
and
n = 2w
e = n + w - 10
Putting 2nd in 3rd, we get:
e = 2w + w - 10
e = 3w - 10
Now putting this and 2nd in first, we solve for w:
n + w + e = 110
2w + w + 3w - 10 = 110
6w = 120
w = 20
AND n = 2 (20) = 40
AND e = 3(20) - 10 = 50
So,
Western U gets 20 million
Norther U gets 40 million
Eastern U gets 50 million
10/200 = 22/x
22(200) = 4400
4400/10 = 440
answer = 440 cm
Hey there!
Let's think of this with a simpler example. Let's say one package is 4 pounds and one is 2 pounds. How many times heavier is the first than the second?Well, two, because the first package is double the weight of the second package! It's twice as heavy! And to get to that number, we divide four by two!
So, in our actual problem, we just divide 3.92 (bigger package) by 2.8 (smaller package).
3.92÷2.8=1.4
So, the first package is 1.4 times heavier than the first one!
Have a wonderful day!
