The distance between New York City, NY, and Louisville, KY is 720 miles. One morning a train traveling 80 mph left from New York

beks73 [17]

Answer:

2 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The distance between New York City, NY, and Louisville, KY is 720 miles. One morning a train traveling 80 mph left from New York. Two hours later a slower train, traveling at 60 mph, left Louisville.

To find : How many hours will the slower train travel for before both trains will arrive at the same point?

Solution : Let the distance covered by NY is x

and let the distance covered by KY is y

Total distance covered is $x+y=720$ ........[1]

→ New York city,

Distance traveled = x

Speed of the train = 80 mph

Time taken = t+2

Formula is $\text{Time}=\frac{\text{Distance}}{\text{Speed}}$

$t+2=\frac{x}{80}$ .......[2]

→ Louisville,

Distance traveled = y

Speed of the train = 60 mph

Time taken = t

Formula is $\text{Time}=\frac{\text{Distance}}{\text{Speed}}$

$t=\frac{y}{60}$ .......[3]

Put the value of t from [3] into [2]

$\frac{x}{80}- \frac{y}{60}=2$ ......[4]

Now, we solve equation [1] and [4],

Put the value of y from [1] and put back in [4], $y=720-x$

$\frac{x}{80}- \frac{y}{60}=2$

$\frac{x}{80}- \frac{720-x}{60}=2$

$\frac{60x-80(720-x)}{80\times60}=2$

$60x-57600+80x=9600$

$140x-57600=9600$

$140x=57600+9600=67200$

$x=\frac{67200}{140}=480$

Put x=480 in [1]

$x+y=720$

$480+y=720$

$y=240$

So, The distance covered by train from New York city is x=480 miles

The distance covered by train from Louisville is y=240 miles.

Now put value of y in [3] to get time,

$t=\frac{y}{60}$

$t=\frac{240}{60}$

$t=4$

So, The time taken by train from Louisville is 4 hr.

The time taken by train from New York city is t+2=4+2=6 hr.

→ 6-4=2 hours will the slower train travel for before both trains will arrive at the same point.

A paper company needs to ship paper to a large printing business. The a paper will be

eimsori [14]

Given :

A paper company needs to ship paper to a large printing business.

The paper will be shipped in small boxes and large boxes.

Each small box of paper weighs 50 pounds and each large box of paper weighs 80 pounds. A total of 19 boxes of paper were shipped weighing 1280 pounds altogether.

Find :

Determine the number of small boxes shipped and the number of large boxes shipped.

Calculations :

Let "S" be small boxes and "L" be large boxes.

Small box + Large box = 19

50S + 80L = 1280

→ 5S + 8L = 128

→ 5 (19 - L) + 8L = 128

→ 3L = 128 - 95

→ L = 33/3

→ L = 11ㅤㅤ

Finding the small box:

→ S = 19 - L

→ S = 19 - 11

→ S = 8

Therefore ,

Large boxes = 11.

Small boxes = 8.

orrrrrr

The number of small boxes is 8 and that of the large boxes is 11.

Step-by-step explanation:

Each small box of paper weighs 50 pounds and each large box of paper

weighs 80 pounds. A total of 19 boxes of paper were shipped weighing 1280 pounds altogether.

Let there are x small boxes and y large boxes.

Then,

x + y = 19 ............ (1) and

50x + 80y = 1280

⇒ 5x + 8y = 128 ............... (2)

Now, solving equations (1) and (2) we get,

5( 19 - y) + 8y = 128

⇒ 3y = 128 - 95 = 33

⇒ y = 11

Now, from equation (1) we get, x = 19 - y = 19 - 11 = 8

Therefore, the number of small boxes is 8 and that of the large boxes is 11. (Answer)
