Two trains leave a city at the same time. One train goes west at a constant rate of 60 mph. The other goes east at a rate of 50

mph. How long will it take the trains to be 550 miles apart?

Hello!

The trains are going in opposite directions, one at 60 mph and the other at 50 mph. We can use this information to create the following formula, where variable "h" represents the number of hours:

50h + 60h = 550

Combine like terms:

110h = 550

Divide both sides by 110:

h = 5

We have now proven that it would take 5 hours for the two trains to be 550 mile apart.

I hope this helps!

Lets t   be the time that needed for trains to be  550 mi apart.
1st train will go (60*t) mi
2nd train will go (50 *t) mi
Altogether
(60t +50t), at the same time this distance equals 550 mi.
So, we can write
60t +50t =550
110t = 550
t=550/110
t=5 h

What are the domain and range of the function mc013-1
lozanna [386]

The domain and range of the function are:

<h3>How to determine the domain of the function?</h3>

In this exercise, you're given the following function f(x) = 5ˣ ⁻ ³ + 1. Next, we would equate the function to zero (0) to determine its domain as follows:

0 = 5ˣ ⁻ ³ + 1.

-1 = 5ˣ ⁻ ³

-(5⁰) = 5ˣ ⁻ ³

-0 = x - 3

x = 3.

Therefore, the domain are all real numbers and they can be substituted for x to return a valid f(x) value.

From the graph of the given function (5ˣ ⁻ ³ + 1), we can logically deduce that the range comprises all real numbers that are greater than 1.

Please help me with this.
vitfil [10]

Answer:

15.6 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we want to find the length of the missing side

Mathematically, we can use Pythagoras’ theorem

The theorem states that the square of the hypotenuse equals the sum of the squares of the two other sides

Let the missing side be x

18 is the side that faces right angle and this is the hypotenuse

Thus, we have ;

x^2 + 9^2 = 18^2

x^2 = 324 - 81

x^2 = 243

x = √(243)

x = 15.6 in

12p + 7 &gt; 139 greater or less than
bazaltina [42]

Answer:

\Huge \boxed{p>11}

Step-by-step explanation:

First, subtract by 7 both sides of equation.

\displaystyle 12p+7-7>139-7

Solve.

\displaystyle 139-7=132

12p>132

Then, divide by 12 both sides of equation.

\displaystyle \frac{12p}{12}=\frac{132}{12}

Solve to find the answer.

\displaystyle 132\div12=11

\huge \boxed{p>11}, which is our answer.
