Answer:

The maximum distance to the nearest kilometer between Westford and Centerville is 111.43 km.

Step-by-step explanation:

Local train stats:

Rate = 60 km/h

Distance = x km

Time = x/60 hours

Express train stats:

Rate = 80 km/h

Distance = (195-x) km

Time = (195-x)/80 hours

Now we will equate both the times.

x/60 =(195-x)/80

x/3= (195-x)/4

4x= 585-3x

7x= 585

x = 83.57 km

195-x=195-83.57= 111.43 km

Hence, the maximum distance to the nearest kilometer between Westford and Centerville is 111.43 km.

I believe your answer is:  

Option A

»»————- ★ ————-««  

Here’s why:  

⸻⸻⸻⸻

\boxed{\text{Option A:}}\\\\3^{-5}\\\\\rightarrow \frac{1}{3^5}\\\\\rightarrow  \frac{1}{243}\\\\\ \text{This is \textbf{NOT} an integer.}}

⸻⸻⸻⸻

\boxed{\text{Option B:}}\\\\-3^5\\\\\rightarrow -3 * -3 * -3 * -3 * -3 \\\\\rightarrow \boxed{-243}\\\\\\\text{This \textbf{IS} an integer.}

⸻⸻⸻⸻

\boxed{\text{Option C:}}\\\\\frac{1}{3}^{-5} \\\\\rightarrow \frac{1}{(\frac{1}{3})^5}\\\\\rightarrow \frac{1}{\frac{1}{243} }\\\\\rightarrow \boxed{243}\\\\\\\text{This \textbf{IS} an integer.}

⸻⸻⸻⸻

\text{Option \textbf{A} does not simplify into an integer.}

⸻⸻⸻⸻
