It takes a train 60 seconds to completely drive through a bridge of 1260 m, and 90 seconds to completely drive through a tunnel
Olegator [25]

The length of train is 120 meters

The speed of train is 25 meter per second

<u><em>Solution:</em></u>

The speed is given by formula:

speed = \frac{distance}{time}

Given that,

It takes a train 60 seconds to completely drive through a bridge of 1260 m

And 90 seconds to completely drive through a tunnel of 2010 m

Let the length of the train be "x"

<em><u>The total distance travelled by the train across the bridge is given by:</u></em>

total distance = x + 1260 + x = 2x + 1260

[ here we use x + x to represent that train completely drives through bridge ]

The time taken is given as 60 seconds

<em><u>Therefore, the speed is given as:</u></em>

speed = \frac{2x+ 1260}{60}

<em><u>The total distance travelled by the train through the tunnel is given by:</u></em>

total distance = x + 2010 + x = 2x + 2010

The time taken is given as 90 seconds

<em><u>Therefore, the speed is given as:</u></em>

speed = \frac{2x+ 2010}{90}

The speed of the train was the same in both cases.

Equate both speeds

\frac{2x+ 1260}{60} = \frac{2x+ 2010}{90}

\frac{x+630}{30} = \frac{x+1005}{45}

45(x+630) = 30(x+1005)\\\\45x + 28350 = 30x + 30150\\\\45x - 30x = 30150 - 28350\\\\15x = 1800\\\\x = 120

Thus length of train is 120 meters

<em><u>Find the speed of train:</u></em>

speed = \frac{2x+ 1260}{60}\\\\speed = \frac{2(120) + 1260)}{60}\\\\speed = 25

Thus speed of train is 25 meter per second

Which is a measure of the efficiency of an investment?
DiKsa [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is option B. Return on Investment.

Step-by-step explanation:

The return on investment is used when we want to measure the capacity of an investment, or compare it among several other investments.

Here the <u>benefit of a certain investment will be compared in contrast to the money invested.  </u>

To calculate the return on investment there is a formula which will give us a percentage:

ROI = Margin on sales X asset turnover.

Now let's clarify what each of these things is:

Margin on sales: it is the result obtained from the calculation of benefits / sales.

Asset Rotation: this is the result obtained from the calculation of Average Total Sales / Assets.
