A freight train leaves a station and travels north at 60 mph. 4 hours ​later, a passenger train leaves on a parallel track and t

ravels north at 100 mph. How long will it take the passenger train to overtake the freight​ train? How far from the station will they​ meet?

Answer:

first do:

60mph * 4 hours= 240mi

Let D = the distance the passenger train has to  

travel to catch the freight train

Start a stopwatch when the passenger train leaves

Let t = the time on the stopwatch when they meet

Equation for freight train:

d-240=60t

Equation for passenger train:

d=100t

all together:

100t-240=60t

we can do 100t-60t because they both have (t)= 40t

40t=240 *now divide 240 by 40= 6

THEN do:

D= 100mph x 6= 600mi

They will meet 600 mi from the station

to check:

d-240=60t x 6

600-240= 360

60 x 6= 360

360=360

What is the radical form of the expression (2x^4y^5)^3/8
s344n2d4d5 [400]

We are given expression: (2x^4y^5)^{3/8}

Let us distribute 3/8 over exponents in parenthesis, we get

(2^{3/8}x^{4\times 3/8}y^{5\times 3/8}) = (2^{3/8}x^{12/8}y^{15/8})

= (2^{3/8}x^{1\frac{4}{8}} y^{1\frac{7}{8}} )

We can get x and y out of the radical because, we get whlole number 1 for x and y exponents for the mixed fractions.

So, we could write it as.

(2^{3/8}x^{1\frac{4}{8}} y^{1\frac{7}{8}} ) = xy(2^{\frac{3}{8} }x^{\frac{4}{8}} y^{\frac{7}{8}} )

Now, we could write inside expression of parenthesis in radical form.

xy\sqrt[8]{2x^{3}x^4y^7}
