Yuto and Lian are at train stations 1,880 kilometers apart. Yuto boards a train heading east at an average speed of 220
Doss [256]

Answer:

1,000 km

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume that when two train pass each other, Lian has traveled x (km)

=> The time Lian has traveled when two trains pass each other is:

<em>Time = Distance/ Rate = x/ 250 (hour)</em>

As Lian and Yuto travelled from the two opposite train stations and the train stations are 1,880 km apart

=> When two train pass each other, Yuto has traveled 1,880 - x (km)

=> The time Yuto has traveled when two trains pass each other is:

<em>Time = Distance/ Rate = (1,880 - x)/220 (hour)</em>

As Lian and Yuto board at the same time, so that when two trains pass each other, the time both of them have traveled is equal

=> <em>x/ 250 = (1,880 - x)/220</em>

<em>=> 220x = 250 x (1,880 -x) </em>

<em>=> 220x = 470,000 - 250x</em>

<em>=> 470x = 470,000</em>

<em>=> x = 1,000</em>

<em />

<em>So that, </em>when two train pass each other, Lian has traveled x = 1,000 km

Marrrta [24]

Answer:

y-1=-3/4(x+8)

Step-by-step explanation:

y=mx+b where m=slope and b=y-intercept,

y-y1=m(x-x1)

y-1=-3/4(x-(-8))

y-1=-3/4(x+8)

An aircraft flew 5 hours with the wind. The return trip took 6 hours against the wind. If the speed of the plane in still air is
Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

Speed of wind = 23.63 miles per hour

Plane speed in still air = 260 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Time taken with wind = 5 hour

Time taken against wind = 6 hour

Assume;

Speed of wind = s

So,

Speed of Plane with wind = (260 + s) miles per hour

Speed of Plane against wind = (260 - s) miles per hour

Distance = speed x time

So,

(260 + s)5 = (260 - s)6

1,300 + 5s = 1,560 - 6s

11s = 260

s = 23.63 miles per hour

Speed of wind = 23.63 miles per hour

Plane speed in still air = 260 miles per hour
