Big Sam, an engineer of the Oval Express says: "We blew off a cylinder head an hour after leaving the station and had to continue the trip at three-fifths of the former speed, which brought us in two hours late. If the accident had occurred fifty miles father on, the train would have arrived forty minutes sooner". Based on Sam's description, how long was the run between the two train stations?
A. 150 miles
B. 200 miles
C. 250 miles
D. 300 miles

Answers

Answer 1
Answer is B. 200 miles

{(y/50)+2} hour=y/30 hour gives y=150 miles. Since, the train already had covered 50 miles at full-speed before the cylinder blew, so the run between the stations was 50+150=200 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

well, I'd just multiply each option out using FOIL

First, Outside, Inside, Last

A) (x + 2√3i)(x - 2√3i)

First                x(x) = x²

Outside          x(- 2√3i) =  - 2x√3i

Inside             x(2√3i)   =    2x√3i

last            (- 2√3i)(2√3i) = -(2²)(√3²)(i²) = -4(3)(-1) = 12

add them all up  x² + 12      looks like it works for me

B) = x² + 36

C) = x² + 4√3 + 12

D) = x² - 12

Answer: 33

Step-by-step explanation: In the problem, you are given the figure with the following:

2x+3 and 3x+12

Method: Lets set this into an equation. Remember that straight lines add up to 180°.

2x+3+3x+12=180°    Combine like terms.

5x+15=180°

5x=165°

x=33°

You can always plug in 33° in the expression that was set to make sure it does give you 180°.

Find the difference between the lengths of the longest and shortest sides of a rectangle if its area is 924 square milimetres and its perimeter is 122 milimetres.

Answers

Length =l

Height = h

Area function = l * h = 924

Perimeter function = 2i + 2h = 122

Divide by 2

I + h = 61.

Plug in I or h for the other variable

I * (61 - I) = 924

61i - i^2 = 924

Factor the function

(-I + 28)(I - 33) = 0

l = 33 as l cannot be negative

61 - 33 = 28

h = 28

Difference between h and l is 33-28=5

Emilio has 8 large bottles of soda and 12 large jugs of water. Emilio wants to set up identical tables and have no drinks left over. What is the greatest number of tables that he can set up?

Answers

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

Think about the ratio between the current number of large bottles of soda(8) and the current number of jugs of water (12)

By finding the GCF (Greatest Common Factor) of the two numbers, we can conclude that if both numbers were to be divided by the GCF, 4, we would get a 2:3 ratio.

For every 2 bottles of soda, 3 jugs of water will be placed. Keep doing this until we run out of both sources of liquid, in this case, 4 tables where we would use all the bottles of soda and the jugs of water.

find the a,b,c of this table

Answers

Answer:

a = b = 1 , c = - 8

Step-by-step explanation:

ax² + bx + c = y

( - 5 )² a - 5b + c = 12

c = - 8

3² a + 3b + c = 4

25a - 5b - 8 = 12 ⇔ 25a - 5b = 20 ⇔ 5a - b = 4 ........ (1)

9a + 3b - 8 = 4 ⇔ 9a + 3b = 12 ⇔ 3a + b = 4 .......... (2)

(1) + (2)

8a = 8 ; a = 1

b = 1

y = x² + x - 8

1/2(20)=

10

Have a wonderful day!

Answer:

Area  = 10 units

Skills needed: Triangle Theory, Substitution of Values

Step-by-step explanation:

1) We are given that the formula to finding the area of the triangle is [tex]\frac{1}{2}bh[/tex].... this essentially means that it is:  [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] times base (b) times height (h)

2) We can then use substitution to solve this. IN the diagram shown there, 4 is the base, and the height is 5 (since b = base, and h = height).

Area is [tex]\frac{1}{2} * b * h[/tex] in general (the * means multiplication)

Substitute in the values and it is: [tex]\frac{1}{2} * 4 * 5[/tex]

--> [tex]4*5=20[/tex]

--> [tex]\frac{1}{2} * 4*5 = \frac{1}{2} * 20 = 10[/tex]

1/2 of 20 is ten, so that is how we arrive at that final answer.

Hope you understand, have a great day :)

A sandwich costs $4.25 and a fruit drink costs $1.85. How much change will you get from a $10 bill?
Follow: Maddie Edits

Answers

Answer:

3.90

Step-by-step explanation:

4.25

+1.85=6.10

10-6.10=3.9

Answer:  $3.90

======================================================

Work Shown:

4.25+1.85 = 6.10

It costs $6.10 to get the sandwich and drink.

If the customer pays with a $10 bill, then they get 10.00 - 6.10 = 3.90 dollars in change.

One way to represent $3.90 is to have:

3 dollar bills = 3 dollars3 quarters = 3*25 = 75 cents1 dime = 10 cents1 nickel = 5 cents

The coins add up in value to 75+10+5 = 90 cents.

Or another option is to have 9 dimes and no other coins. Or perhaps you could have nothing but nickels and you'd need 18 nickels. There are a few ways to determine what coins to use.
