Let the number of bags that he would have been used to put 3 kg of apples be x. Thus the number of bags that would be used to put 2kgs will therefore be (x+9), hence the total number of kgs the bags will hold will be given by:
3*x=3x kgs
2(x+9)=(2x+18) kgs
since the total weights are the same then:
2x+18=3x
hence
18=3x-2x
18=x
thus the number of bags required to put 3 kgs of apples will be 18. Thus the total Kgs of apples was:
3x
=3*18
=54 kgs
7.5 mph in 3 hours the train can travel 22.5 miles. Take 2.5 and times it by 3 to get the mph, then multiply that answer by 3 again to get the total miles in 3 hours
By using the quadratic equation your answer is y = x^2/4 - x + 5
Average speed = total distance/ time taken
= 200/5 = 40 miles per hour.
