Answer: C 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the formula: distance = rate x time
We can say that train 1 travels a distance of x, and train 2 travels a distance of 700 - x
The rate of train 1 is 75 mph, and the rate of train 2 is 100 mph
The time traveled for the two trains will be the same. We can represent that with the variable t.
We have the following equation for train 1:
x = 75t
For train 2, we have this equation:
700 - x = 100t
Use the Substitution Method by replacing x in the equation for train 2 with the value 75t.
700 - 75t = 100t
700 = 175t
700/175 = 4 hours.
It will take 4 hours for the two trains to meet.
Luis earns a solid $150 and that doesn't change, now you need to calculate 14% of $6,050.
x=150+(0.14x6050)
150+(847)
997
Luis was paid $997.
I know for 2x you would go up 2 over 1 but I don’t know about -7?? Maybe down
