Answer:

Train A weighs 252 tons and Train B weighs 13 tons

Step-by-step explanation:

Let "A" represent the weight of Train A and "B" represent the weight of train B.

We can use this to set up a system of equations:

A+B=265

A-B=239

We can solve using elimination. Let's subtract the second equation from the first to cancel out A.

2B=26

Divide both sides by 2

B=13

Plug 63 back in for B in any of the two equations:

A+13=265

Subtract 13 from both sides

A=252

Train A weighs 252 tons and Train B weighs 13 tons

Write an equation of the line that passes through the points.<br><br> (2, 5), (0, 5)<br><br> Y =
vodomira [7]
Right off the bat we know that the y-intercept is going to be 5 because of the second co-ordinate.

Now for the slope, because the y co-ordinate doesn't change, it has no slope so the equation is simply: y=5

Hope this helps :)

Find the equation for the line that passes through the point (4,2) that is parallel to the line with the equation
siniylev [52]

Step-by-step explanation:

if they are parralel it means gradient is the same

finding equation we find another point which is (x,y)

therefore y - 2/ x - 4 should be equal to 2/3.

y - 2 = 2/3(x - 4)

y - 2 = 2/3x - 8/3

y = 2/3x - 8/3 + 2

Use the real zeros to factor f x^4 plus 10^3 minus 20x^2 minus 90x plus 99
Furkat [3]

Answer:

f(x) = (x + 11) (x + 3) (x − 1) (x − 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = x⁴ + 10x³ − 20x² − 90x + 99

f(x) is a fourth order polynomial, so it has 4 roots.  Use rational root theorem to find possible rational roots.

±99, ±11, ±9, ±3, ±1

By trial and error, the zeros are -11, -3, 1, and 3.

f(x) = (x + 11) (x + 3) (x − 1) (x − 3)
