Answer:
Train A - 50 miles per hour
train B - 30 miles per hour
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x mph be the speed of the train B, then the speed of the train A is (x+20) mph.
In 3 hours,
- train A travels 3(x+20) miles
- train B travels 3x miles
In total, they covered the distance of 240 miles, so
![3(x+20)+3x=240\ \ \ \text{[Divide by 3]}\\ \\x+20+x=80\\ \\2x=80-20\\ \\2x=60\\ \\x=30\ mph\\ \\x+20=30+20=50\ mph](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=3%28x%2B20%29%2B3x%3D240%5C%20%5C%20%5C%20%5Ctext%7B%5BDivide%20by%203%5D%7D%5C%5C%20%5C%5Cx%2B20%2Bx%3D80%5C%5C%20%5C%5C2x%3D80-20%5C%5C%20%5C%5C2x%3D60%5C%5C%20%5C%5Cx%3D30%5C%20mph%5C%5C%20%5C%5Cx%2B20%3D30%2B20%3D50%5C%20mph)
Answer:
Choice C
Step-by-step explanation:
f: initial value of 200 decreasing at a rate of 4%
g: initial value of 40 increasing at a rate of 8%
f is decreasing so it must go down starting at 200
That eliminates a and d
g is increasing and starts at 40 That eliminates a
We must look at b and c
g is increasing faster than f is decreasing
Choice C
Answer:
$1151.4
Step-by-step explanation:
let americans spend $a in 2014
(1+4.8%)a=1180
104.8%a=1180
a=1151.4 (rounded off to the nearest tenths)
