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

The first one is 200 because 1000 divided by 135 is 7.40740741 and 7.40740741 times 27 is APPROXIMATELY 200. Therefore that is how many candies there are. (real answer 200.00000007)

The second question: 100- 1,495          500- 7,475               1000- 14,950

Hope I helped! :)

nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

214

Step-by-step explanation:

The playing field is 53.33 yards wide and 120 yards long you would need to find the area so multiply 53.33 by 120 yards. That equals 6399.6 , the thickness they are applying is 1.2 millimeters. You would divide the area, 6399.6 by 1.2 which would equal 5333. Divide that by 25 gallons and it equals 213.32, you would need to purchase 214, rounded.

What equivalent fractions could you write to add 1/2 and 2/3 ? EXPLAIN.
Anna11 [10]

Answer: 3/6 + 4/6

Step-by-step explanation:

So the key to this is you can only add fractions with the same denominator. As you can see from this question these denominators (2 and 3) are not the same so we need to change that. We can usually find a common denominator between the numbers but to save time the smallest number that both 2 and 3 go into is 6. so 1/2 becomes 3/6 because 1/2=3/6. And 2/3 becomes 4/6 because 4/6=2/3. Since that's true we can add both 3/6 and 4/6. So when adding fractions remember only add NUMERATORS do not add DENOMINATORS. so 3/6 and 4/6 = 7/6 NOT \neq 7/12.
