Answer:
95+75=170 mph=speed at which the two trains are moving apart
travel time=distance/speed=374/170=2.2
How long will it take for the two trains to be 374 miles apart? 2.2 hrs
Step-by-step explanation:
Positive numbers is the last one
Let n represent the amount Colin earned on Sunday.
On Sat. he earned n/2; on Sun. he earned n; and on Friday he earned (1/2)(n/2).
Then n/2 + n + n/4 = $70
Mult. all terms by 4 to eliminate fractions:
2n + 4n + n = $280
7n = $280 => n = $40
Colin earned n/2, or $20, on Saturday; n, or $40, on Sunday; and n/4, or $10, on Friday.
Note that $20 and $40 and $10 add up to $70, as they must.
