Answer:

  367 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

The speed of the faster train is half the total plus half the difference:

  s1 = (723.1 +10.9)/2 = 367 . . . . miles per hour

_____

<em>Check</em>

The slower train is 367-10.9 = 356.1, and the total is 723.1 mph, as required.

_____

If you want an equation, you can let x represent the faster speed. Then the total is ...

  x + (x -10.9) = 723.1

  2x = 723.1 +10.9

  x = (723.1 +10.9)/2 = 367

QUESTION :-
Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

  • 92000

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given:</u>

  • I = 5% = 0.05
  • t = 2 years
  • Let the sum is x.

<u>Simple interest:</u>

  • SI = x*2*0.05 = 0.1x

<u>Compound interest:</u>

  • CI = x*(1 + 0.05)² - x = 1.1025x - x = 0.1025x

<u>The difference is 230:</u>

  • 0.1025x - 0.1x = 230
  • 0.0025x = 230
  • x = 230/0.0025
  • x = 92000
