So first we want to find how far away they were after one hour.
Assuming they were going at a steady rate:
Since:
320 miles = distance traveled in 2 hours
We can divide both sides by 2 to get:
160 miles = distance traveled in 1 hour.
So we now know that the trains were 160 miles apart after 1 hour.
So we can assign the eastbound train a variable for its speed right now, or just x. And then the westbound train would be x + 18.
So, since the rate is in miles per hour, and they traveled 160 miles in one hour, we can say:
x + x + 18 = 160 miles
Then just solve.
2x + 18 = 160
-18 -18
2x = 142
/2 /2
x = 71
Since x equals the rate of the eastbound train, and we're looking for the westbound train, just add 18 to 71 because the westbound train was going 18 mph faster than the eastbound train.
18 + 71 = 89
So the rate of the westbound train is 89 mph.
Answer:
10
Step-by-step explanation:
The third square root is the cube root. This means we are looking for the number that multiplies by itself 3 times to get to 1000, which is 10. (10x10x10=1000)
Hope this helped!
Answer:
6
Step-by-step explanation:
2+2^2÷4+3
PEMDAS says exponents first
2+4÷4+3
Then multiply and divide from left to right
2+1+3
Then add and subtract
6
You have to add the last number to itself. So the next number would be 32 because 16 + 16 equals 32. Then you add 32 + 32 so the next number would be 64
1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128
