Answer:

1.2 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data:

Speed of the westbound train = 55 miles/hr

Speed of the eastbound train = 75 miles/hr

Since the trains are moving in the opposite direction their relative speed becomes,

55 miles/hr +75 miles/hr=130 miles/hr.

Since, time = distance / speed

Now the time taken for the two trains to be 156 miles apart

time = \frac{156 miles}{130 miles/hr} \\=1.2 hours

Hence, the time taken for the two trains to be 156 miles apart = 1.2 hours

The time that taken for the two trains is 1.2 hours.

The computation of the time taken for the two trains is shown below:

Given that

The westbound train travels 55 miles per hour.

And, the eastbound train travels 75 miles per hour.

So, the total speed is

= 55 miles per hour + 75 miles per hour

= 130 miles per hour

The distance is 156 miles

So, the time taken is

= \frac{distance}{speed}\\\\= \frac{156\ miles}{130\  miles\ per\ hour}\\\\

= 1.2 hours

Therefore we can conclude that the time that taken for the two trains is 1.2 hours.

Can you extend the zero product property to non zero products of numbers? For example, if ab=8, is it always true that a=8 or b=
larisa [96]
That is not always true because think of it as ab=8 that is just like saying (8)(8)=8 which is absolutely false. If anything it can be either a or be equals 8 while the other variable is 1. (1)(8)=8 or (8)(1)=8

Q3. A bag contains 7 red balls and 3 green balls. A ball is taken out replaced.
ycow [4]

Part (a)

There are 7 red out of 7+3 = 10 total

<h3>Answer: 7/10</h3>

==========================================================

Part (b)

We have 3 green out of 10 total

<h3>Answer: 3/10</h3>

==========================================================

Part (c)

3/10 is the probability of getting green on any selection. This is because we put the first selection back (or it is replaced with an identical copy)

So (3/10)*(3/10) = 9/100 is the probability of getting two green in a row.

<h3>Answer: 9/100</h3>

==========================================================

Part (d)

Similar to part (c) we have 7/10 as the probability of getting red on each independent selection.

(7/10)*(7/10) = 49/100

<h3>Answer: 49/100</h3>

==========================================================

Part (e)

7/10 is the probability of getting red and 3/10 is the probability of getting green. Each selection is independent of any others.

(7/10)*(3/10) = 21/100

<h3>Answer: 21/100</h3>

==========================================================

Part (f)

We have the exact same set up as part (e). Notice how (7/10)*(3/10) is the same as (3/10)*(7/10).

<h3>Answer: 21/100</h3>

What is the equation in point-slope form of the line that passes through the point (3, −2) and has a slope of 23 ?
Oksanka [162]
Use the point slope formula. then, substitute the values inside the formula.

x1 =3
y1= -2
m = 23

y -y1 = m ( x - x1)

y - (-2) = 23 (x - 3)

y + 2 = 23 ( x - 3)
