Two trains leave the station at the same time, one heading east and the other west. The eastbound train travels 18 miles per hou

r slower than the westbound train. If the two trains are 570 miles apart after 3 hours, what is the rate of the eastbound train?

Formula: Distance = rate * time

570 = (R+(R-18))*3

570 = (2R - 18)*3

190 = 2R-16

208 = 2R

R = 104


Eastbound Train: 86mph

Westbound Train: 104mph

A rectangle has a legnth of 12 inches less than 6 times its width. If the area of the rectangle is 3744 square inches, find the
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Length = 6x - 12

Width = x

Area of a rectangle:

A = length x width

3744 = (x)(6x - 12)

3744 = 6x^2 - 12x

6x^2 - 12x - 3744 = 0

Use the quadratic equation to solve for x. The two solutions end up being 26 and -24. Since length is a scalar measurement, it can only be positive. Thus, the value of x is equal to 26 inches.

Width = 26 inches

Length = 6(26) - 12 = 144 inches

Hope this helps!! :)

Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

125/2 or 62.5 or 62 1/2 (x=)

Step-by-step explanation:

25/4=x/10  multiply everything by 20

25*20/4=20x/10 simplify

25*5=2x simplify

125=2x divide on both sides

125/2 or 62.5 or 62 1/2=x

3yd 4yd what is the length of the hypotenuse
hjlf

Answer:

5 yd

Step-by-step explanation:

Use Pythagorean theorem,

Hypotenuse² = base² + altitude²

                      = 3² + 4²

                       = 9 + 16

                       = 25

Hypotenuse = √25 = √5*5 = 5 yd
