Complete question :

From points A and B, the distance between which is 1020 mi, two trains left simultaneously towards each other. The speed of one train was 10 mph greater than the speed of the other one. In 5 hours the trains had not met yet and were 170 mi apart. Find the speed of the trains.

Answer:

Train A = 80 miles per hour

Train B = 90 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Distance between A and B = 1020

Let the speed of A = x

Speed of B = x + 10

Since they both left simultaneously;

Distance traveled after 5 hours will be :

Distance = speed * time

A = x * 5 = 5x

B = (x + 10) * 5 = 5x + 50

After the distance traveled by each of A and B, they are still 170 miles apart

Hence, distance covered after 5 hours ;

Total miles - miles left

1020 - 170 = 850 miles

Hence,

5x + 5x + 50 = 850

10x = 850 - 50

10x = 800

x = 80

Train A = 80 miles per hour

Train B = 80 + 10 = 90 miles per hour

For each problem, identify any important quantities. If it's a known quantity, write the
Tema [17]

Answer:

We have the problem:

"Clare is in charge of getting snacks for a road trip with her friends and her dog. She has

$35 to go to the store to get some supplies. The snacks for herself and her friends cost

$3.25 each, and her dog's snacks costs $9 each."

In this situation we have two variables:

X =  number of snacks for herself and her friends that she buys. Each one of these costs $3.50

Y = number of snacks for her dog that she buys. Each one of these costs $9.

The total cost, in this case, can be written as:

X*$3.50 + Y*$9

And we know that she has $35 to spend, so she can spend $35 or less in the store, then we have the inequality:

X*$3.50 + Y*$9  ≤ $35

Where we defined all the quantities in the inequality.

Question 40 and it about adding and subtracting polynomials
kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

39x-7

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter is all the sides added together so

9x + 8x - 2 + 5x + 1 + 17x - 6

Since you can't solve it you just want to simplify the equation, add the like terms together

9x+8x+5x+17x = 39x

-2+1-6 = -7

Your equation is 39x-7
