An old railroad car was able to haul one days worth of coal in 15 hours the new railroad car only takes 10 hours because of high
demand both cars are used at the same time how long will it take them to transport one day supply of coal
1 answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Old Railroad Car:
- 1 day of coal in 15 hours
- 1/15 days of coal in 1 hour
New Railroad Car:
- 1 day of coal in 10 hours
- 1/10 days of coal in 1 hour
Total number of days of coal in 1 hour
= 1/15 + 1/10 = 1/6.
Since there is 1/6 days of coal in 1 hour,
there will be 1 day of coal in 6 hours.
It will take them 6 hours to transport the supply.

Answer:
B. 1.7 in
Step-by-step explanation:
Divide the triangle into 2 congruent right angle triangles
With hypotenuse: 2
Base: 2/2 = 1
Using pythagoras theorem
2² = 1² + h²
h² = 3
h = sqrt(3)
h = 1.732050808
Answer:
m<1 = 79°
Step-by-step explanation:
12x + 19 + 22x - 9 = 180
add the numbers
34x + 10 =180
minus 10
34x = 170
divide by 34
x = 5
plug 5 into the equation of angle 1
12(5) + 19 =
79
So,
If she keeps one-fourth for herself, she will keep:
72 * 0.25 = 18
That leaves the rest for her friends.
72 - 18 = 54
Her friends will get 54 "Suites."
