Two trains, Train A and Train B, simultaneously depart Station A and Station B. Station A and Station B are 252.5 miles apart from each other. Train A is moving at 124.7mph towards Station B, and Train B is moving at 253.5mph towards station A. If both trains departed at 10:00AM and it is now 10:08, how much longer until both trains pass each other?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

-- The trains start moving at the same time.

-- The space between them is initially 252.5 miles.

-- They reduce the distance between them at the rate of (124.7+253.5)=378.2mph.

-- It will take them (252.5 / 378.2) = 0.6676 hour to meet.  

That's 40min 3.49sec .

-- After tooting and puffing toward each other for 8 minutes, they still have 32min 3.49sec to go before they meet each other.  We're all hoping that they're on different tracks.

What is 1/2 of 2 3/4?

Answers

Answer:

1 3/8

Step-by-step explanation:

First, change the mixed fraction to improper fraction.

2 3/4 = 8/4 + 3/4 = 11/4

1/2 of 11/4 = (11/4)(1/2) = 11/8

11/4 - 11/8 = 22/8 - 11/8 = 11/8

11/8, or 1 3/8 is your answer.

Joey has $254 to spend at the video game store. He was able to buy 9 video games and had $29 left. How much did each game cost? (Please help :()

Answers

If he had $254 to spend, and at the end (after spending) he was left with $29, then that means he spent $225 on video games. That's because we're taking away what he has now from what he had originally to spend, which leaves us with how much he spent on games in total.

So, if we know that he spent $225 on 9 video games, we can work out how much each game costs by dividing the amount he spent ($225) by the number of games (9) to give us the final answer:

$225 ÷ 9 = $25

He spent $25 on each game. Hope that helped! :)
Answer: $25


First we figure out how
much money Joey spent:
254 - 29 = 225

now we divide that by 9
225 / 9 = 25


(a brainliest would be appreciated)
