Two trains leave the station at the same time, one heading east and the other west. The eastbound train travels at 75 miles per

hour. The westbound train travels at 85 miles per hour. How long will it take for the two trains to be 384 miles apart?
Do not do any rounding.

Let the time = x

Distance = Speed x time

One train is 75x, the other train 85x

Add together to equal total distance:

75x + 85x = 384

Simplify:

160x = 384

Divide both sides by 160:

x = 384 / 160

x = 2.4 hours

PLEASE HELP! Is my answer correct?
Oxana [17]

We know angle P is 90 degrees because of Thales Theorem, and angle N is 60 degrees. Because the angles in a triangle have to add up to 180 degrees, angle PMN has to be 30 degrees.

Angle QMO is half of angle PMN, so it's 15 degrees. Angle MQO is equal to angle QMO because the radii make Triangle OQM isosceles, so angle MQO is 15 degrees.

Sophia determined that the expression Negative (4 x minus 5) + 2 (x minus 3) is equivalent to –2x – 5 by using the steps below.
CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:Hope This Helps ☺️

Step-by-step explanation:

She is not correct because she did not substitute the same number in both expressions in Step 1

Step-by-step explanation:

CASE 1: substitute 1 for x to both sides of the equations

L.H.S

-(4x-5)+2(x-3)

-(4 (1) - 5)+ 2(1-3) = - (-1) + 2(-2) = 1 - 4 = -3

R.H.S

-2x - 5

-2(1) - 5 = -2-5 = -7

Hence for x= 1

-(4x-5)+2(x-3) ≠ -2x -5

Because -3 ≠ -7

CASE 2: substitute -1 for x to both sides of the equations

L.H.S

-(4x-5)+2(x-3)

-(4 (-1) - 5)+ 2(-1-3) = - (-9) + 2(-4) = 9 - 8 = 1

R.H.S

-2x - 5

-2(-1) - 5 = 2-5 = -3

Hence for x= -1

-(4x-5)+2(x-3) ≠ -2x -5

Because 1 ≠ -3

Answer:

She is not correct because she did not substitute the same number in both expressions in Step 1

A quality control specialist at a pencil manufacturer pulls a random sample of 45 pencils from the assembly line. The pencils ha
amm1812

Answer:

The P-value you would use to test the claim that the population mean of  pencils produced in that factory have a mean length equal to 18.0 cm is 0.00736.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a quality control specialist at a pencil manufacturer pulls a random sample of 45 pencils from the assembly line.

The pencils have a mean length of  17.9 cm. Given that the population standard deviation is 0.25 cm.

Let \mu = <u><em>population mean length of  pencils produced in that factory.</em></u>

So, Null Hypothesis, H_0 : \mu = 18.0 cm     {means that the population mean of  pencils produced in that factory have a mean length equal to 18.0 cm}

Alternate Hypothesis, H_A : \mu\neq 18.0 cm     {means that the population mean of  pencils produced in that factory have a mean length different from 18.0 cm}

The test statistics that will be used here is <u>One-sample z-test</u> statistics because we know about the population standard deviation;

                           T.S.  =  \frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }  ~ N(0,1)

where, \bar X = sample mean length of pencils = 17.9 cm

           \sigma = population standard deviation = 0.25 cm

           n = sample of pencils = 45

So, <u><em>the test statistics</em></u> =  \frac{17.9-18.0}{\frac{0.25}{\sqrt{45} } }  

                                    =  -2.68

The value of z-test statistics is -2.68.

<u>Now, the P-value of the test statistics is given by;</u>

         P-value = P(Z < -2.68) = 1 - P(Z \leq 2.68)

                      = 1- 0.99632 = 0.00368

For the two-tailed test, the P-value is calculated as = 2 \times 0.00368 = 0.00736.

Combine like terms<br> -4-4y+2x-2x-6
allsm [11]

I adore combining like terms! :)

First, let's combine x's:

2x-2x cancel out to 0

Now y's:

-4y

And now numbers or constants:

-4-6=-10

Now write all the terms together:

-4y-10

Hope it helps!
