Answer:

  5 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose the front parts of the trains meet at point A. Since both are the same length and traveling the same speed, each will pass point A in time ...

  time = distance/speed

  time = (1/18 mi)/(40 mi/h) = (1/720 h) × (3600 s)/(1 h) = 5 s

That is, the rear part of each train will be at point A 5 seconds after the front part.

The rear parts will pass each other 5 seconds after the front parts meet.

What times what equals 29 besides 29 times 1
Feliz [49]
<span>The answer is 1 times 29. Number 29 is a prime number, which means that its multiples are 1 and itself (29). 29 = 29 * 1. According to the commutative law, in addition and multiplication, numbers can be swapped but the result will remain the same: a+b=b+a or a*b=b*a. Therefore, 29 = 29 * 1 = 1 * 29. In other words, 29 times 1 equals 29 and 1 times 29 equals 29, too.</span>

The price was marked down. If the price was reduced, we have to sum with the other value to find the original price:

85 + 20 = \boxed {105}

The original price was $105.
