Answer: the two trains will meet in 2.8 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

Speed of train A  = 90mph

Speed of train B = 110 mph

Since both trains  are travelling towards each other , their effective speed will be= 90 mph + 110mph= 200mph

Step 2

we know that Speed = distance / time

therefore Time = Distance / speed

Distance = 560 miles

Speed = 200 mph

Time = 560miles / 200mph

2.8 hours

Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

3a+6

Step-by-step explanation:

3a+6 = 24a+48 divided by 8 (there are 8 sides in an octagon)

covert 24a +48 inches into feet

2a+4 feet = 18 feet

subtract 4 from both sides

2a = 14

divided 2 from both sides

a = 7

covert 3a+6 inches into feet

0.25a +0,5

0.25(7)+0.5

= 2.25

verify your answer

2.25 x 8 = 18
