Myles ran 2 times what alison ran:
2x21 = 42

Hector ran 5 times as many miles as Myles:

A train from Portland, Oregon, to Los Angeles, California, travels at an average speed of 60 miles per hour and covers a distanc

seropon [69]

Answer:

The train need to leave Portland at 03:27 am

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find out how long it takes the train to travel from Portland, Oregon, to Los Angeles, California

Remember that

The speed is equal to divide the distance by the time

so

The time is equal to divide the distance by the speed

Let

s ---> the speed in miles per hour

d ---> the distance in miles

t ---> the time in hours

$t=\frac{d}{s}$

we have

$d=963\ mi$

$s=60\ mi/h$

substitute

$t=\frac{963}{60}=16.05\ hours$

step 2

Adds 30 minutes (time it takes to get from the train station to her aunt's house)

Remember that

$30\ minutes=0.50\ hours$

$16.05+0.50=16.55\ hours$

Convert to minutes

$16.55\ h=16.55(60)\ min=993\ min$

step 3

Remember that

$8 p.m=20:00\ hrs$

Convert to minutes

$20(60)=1,200\ min$

Subtract 993 minutes from 1,200 minutes

$1,200-993=207\ min$

Convert to hours+minutes

$207\ min=207/60=3.45\ hours$

$0.45\ h=0.45(60)=27\ min$

so

$3\ h+27\ min$

$00:00 + 03:27=03:27\ am$

therefore

The train need to leave Portland at 03:27 am

At 2:00pm a car's speedometer reads 20mph, and at 2:10pm it reads 30mph.

Dmitry [639]

Over this 10-minute interval, the car's average acceleration is

$\dfrac{30\,\mathrm{mph}-20\,\mathrm{mph}}{10\,\mathrm{min}}=\dfrac{10\,\mathrm{mph}}{\frac16\,\mathrm h}=60\dfrac{\rm mi}{\mathrm h^2}$

The MVT says that at some point during this 10-minute interval, the car must have had an acceleration of 60 mi/h^2.
