Two trains leave Stations 396 miles apart at the same time and travel towards each other. One train travels at 95 mph while othe
PolarNik [594]

It will take 2.2 hours for the trains to meet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Distance between two trains = 396 miles

Speed of one train = 95 mph

Speed of other train = 85 mph

Combined speed of trains = 95+85 = 180 mph

Distance = Speed * Time

Time = \frac{Distance}{Speed}

Time = \frac{396}{180}

Time = 2.2 hours

It will take 2.2 hours for the trains to meet.

Aria studied the traffic trends in India. She found that the number of cars on the road increases by 10% each year. If there wer
denpristay [2]

Answer:

8,800,000cars

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the initial amount of cars = 80,000,000

If there is 10 % increase in the first year;

Increment = 10% of 80,000,000

Increment = 0.1 * 80,000,000

Increment = 8,000,000

Amount of car in year 2 = 80million + 8million = 88million

Year3;

Amount of car in year 3 = 88,000,000+(10%of88million)

Amount of car in year 3 = 88,000,000+8,800,000

Amount of car in year 3 =96,800,000

Differences in the number of cars = 96,800,000 - 88,000,000

Differences in the number of cars = 8,800,000cars

<em>Hence there are 8,800,000cars in years 3 than year 2</em>

The length of a rectangular floor is twice its width. The floor is partially covered by a rectangular carpet whose length is the
NISA [10]

Answer:

20ft

Step-by-step explanation:

We have two unknowns, the length and the width of the floor. Let us represent this by l and w respectively.

Firstly, we are told that the length of the floor is twice its width. This mathematically means that l = 2w

The width of the rectangular carpet is 2ft less than the width of the floor but the floor length is equal. This means that the width of the floor is (w - 2)ft

Now we are told that the area of the rectangular carpet is 160 sq.ft

This means the length of the carpet multiplied by the width is 160

Mathematically:

l * (w-2) = 160

We know that l = 2w, if we substitute this:

2w(w - 2) = 160

w(w -2) = 80

w^2 -2w = 80

w^2 - 2w - 80 = 0

w^2 -10w + 8w -80 = 0

w(w -10) + 8(w - 10) = 0

(w + 8)(w -10) = 0

w = -8 or 10

Since distance cannot be negative, we ignore the -8 and use the 10 only

Hence the width is 10ft

The length is 2 times the width. The length is thus 2 * 10ft = 20ft

Can Someone help me with work too. show some work please

In this problem,, we are told that Mr Nelson needs 5 1/2 yards of fabric to make two dresses. the problem then asks us to find out how much fabric it will take to make only one of the dresses. this means that in order to find out how much fabric is needed to make only one of the two dresses,, we need to divide the total amount of fabric by two. the equation will look like the following:
5 1/2 ÷ 2
the first step to solving this is to convert the mixed number to an improper fraction
11/2 ÷ 2
now,, you can turn the 2 into a fraction and changed the sign because dividing is equivalent to multiplying with the reciprocal value.
11/2 × 1/2
you must then multiply the fractions
11/4
finally,, you need to simplify the fraction to find the answer
2 3/4 yards
since you cannot simplify any further,, the correct answer to your question is A, 2 3/4 yards.
let me know if you have any further questions

Derrick is placing a right triangle in the coordinate plane. He knows that the longer leg is 3 times the length of the shorter l
natali 33 [55]

Answer:

Longer leg is placed on X axis.

Let the longer leg be at A(0,0) and B(3 a,0),or (-3 a,0), which is  either base or altitude.

AB= 3 a

As longer leg = 3 × shorter leg

Shorter leg should be placed  either at (0,a) or (0,-a) maintaining triangle as right angled triangle.
