Answer:
Let the speed of the train be x km/h.
Case 1:
Distance = 288 km
Speed = x km/h
Time = Distance/Speed
= 288/x h
Case 2:
Distance = 288 km
Speed = (x+4) km/h
Time = 288/x + 4 h
Since 288/x > 288/x + 4
288/x - 288/x+4 = 1
288[1/x - 1/x+4 ] = 1
[ x + 4 - x / x(x + 4) ] = 1/288
[4 / x^2 + 4x ] = 1/288
x^2 + 4x = 1152
x^2 + 4x - 1152 = 0
x^2 + 36x - 32x - 1152 = 0
x(x + 36) - 32(x + 36) = 0
(x + 36)(x - 32) = 0
x + 36 = 0 , x - 32 = 0
x = -36 , x = 32
x = -36 , rejected since speed cannot be negative.
Therefore , speed of the train = 32 km/h
Answer:
x = 105 degrees.
Step-by-step explanation:
The small polygon is a regular hexagon so each internal angle = 120 degrees while the large polygon is a regular octagon with internal angle =
135 degrees.
So angle x = 360 - ( 120 + 135)
= 360 - 255
= 105 degrees.
Note we use the fomula T = 180( n - 2) to find total internal angles in an n sided polygon. So for hexagon T = 180(6-2) = 180*4 = 720 so each internal angle in a regular hexagon = 720/6 = 120 degrees.
Answer:
- 3/8 in/ft
- 1/32 . . . (pure number, no units)
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio can be expressed directly as ...
... (6 in)/(16 ft) = 3/8 in/ft
This can be read or used in different ways:
Or, the units can be made compatible and the ratio expressed as a pure number.
... (1/2 ft)/(16 ft) = (1/32) ft/ft = 1/32
This means whatever measurement is made on the model, the actual vehicle measurement is 32 times that.
I think you’d do (5,8) - (1,3) to get (4,5)
