3 0

Answer: 60mph

Step-by-step explanation:

500-300 = 200

200 = distance traveled in 2 hrs

100 = distance traveled every hour

100=2x+20, x being the slower train

80=2x

x=40

40+20 = 60, the speed of the faster train

This is a hexagonal prism: Volume = Area of Base (hexagon) x Height:
There are 6 equal equilateral triangles in a hexagone.
The apothem (or altitude of each triangle) = side x (√3)/2 =12(√3)/2 = 6√3
Area of ONE equilateral triangle = (side x altitude)/2:
Area of ONE equilateral triangle = (12 x 6√3)/2 = 36√3 ft²
Area of the SIX equilateral triangles = 36√3 x 6 = 216√3 ft²
VOLUME = BASE X HEIGHT = 216√3 x 15 = 3240√3 ft³

OR VOLUME = 5612 ft³
