SOLUTION
At the same time t,
Train 1 would have covered a distance of 80t, since distance = average speed x time.
Train 2 would have covered a distance of 70t.
Now both added should give 210 miles
That is 80t + 70t = 210
150t = 210
t = 210/150
t = 1.4 hours
If
is the amount of strontium-90 present in the area in year
, and it decays at a rate of 2.5% per year, then

Let
be the starting amount immediately after the nuclear reactor explodes. Then

or simply

So that after 50 years, the amount of strontium-90 that remains is approximately

or about 28% of the original amount.
We can confirm this another way; recall the exponential decay formula,

where
is measured in years. We're told that 2.5% of the starting amount
decays after 1 year, so that

Then after 50 years, we have

Answer:
$10.23
Step-by-step explanation:
$2.19+$1.39+$3.69+$2.29=9.56
9.56 x 1.07=10.2292
You round to the nearest tenths place
$10.23
Draw triangles within the ramps and since they are right triangles, use the pythagorean theorem based on what was given and solve
