A bus travels from Station A to Station B, and a truck travels from Station B to Station A on the same road. The speed of the bu
prisoha [69]

Answer:

The distance between the two train stations is 1728 km

Step-by-step explanation:

The speed of the bus = 54 km/h

The speed of the truck = 48 km/h

When the bus and truck meet again, the distance covered by the bus = 216 km more than he distance traveled by the truck

Let the distance between the two train stations = x

Let the location where they first meet be y from station A we have;

The location where they meet again = y - 216 km

Therefore, we have;

Location where they

The time for the truck and the bus to meet again = t

Therefore, 54 × t - 48 × t = 216 km

6·t = 216 km

t = 36 hours

Therefore, the time for the bus to travel x + 216 km = 36 hours

54 × 36 = 1944 = x + 216

x = 1944 - 216 = 1728 km

The distance between the two train stations = 1728 km.

The mean distance of the Moon from Earth is 2.39x10^5 miles. Assuming that the orbit of the Moon around Earth is circular and th
olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

2291,94 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this we need to consider the distance 2.39x10^5 miles as the distance between the center of the earth and the center of the moon, if not we would need to know the radius of the earth and the moon.

If the distance is 2.39x10^5 miles, the orbit is = 2.Pi.(2.39x10^5) miles=1501681.288miles

It takes 27.3 days, that are, 27.3*24= 655.2hours

1501681.288miles/655.2hours= 2291.94 mph

I just need help set up
Vilka [71]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Set up equations (L= Lisa; M = Maria; A = April; J = Jim)</em>

L = 12M

A = 2J

<em>Substitute x for Maria and 6x for Jim</em>

L = 12x

A = 2(6x) = 12x

<em>So, you get:</em>

Maria = x

Jim = 6x

Lisa = 12x

April = 12x
