Answer:
A=hb b/2
Step-by-step explanation:
area=height(sub)base times base divided by 2
Let the number of hours = X
Multiply the speed of each train by the number of hours (x) and add them together to equal the total miles:
75x + 95x = 238
Simplify:
170x = 238
Divide both sides by 170:
x = 238/170
x = 1.4 hours.
Check:
75 x 1.4 = 105 miles
95 x 1.4 = 133 miles
105 + 133 = 238 miles
It will take 1.4 hours ( 1 hour and 24 minutes).
5 wholes = 5
2 fifths = 2/5
5 - 2/5 = 4 3/5 (4 and 3 fifths)
Answer = 4 3/5
Check work:
4 3/5 + 2/5 = 5 (wholes)
