Yesterday at 1:00 P. M., Maria’s train was 42 miles north of Gull’s Beach, traveling north at an average speed of 90 mph. At the same time on the adjacent track, Elena’s train was 6 miles north of Gull’s Beach, traveling north at an average speed of 101 mph. To the nearest hundredth of an hour, after how much time will the trains meet up? 0.23 hours 0.31 hours 3.27 hours 4.36 hours

3.27 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the difference in speed and distance between the trains.

The relative speed:

101 - 90 = 11 mph

Difference in distance:

42 - 6 = 36 miles

hello from mrbilldoesmath!

answer:

x - 3

discussion:

x^2 - 9 = (x-3) (x+3)   so

(x^2-9)/ (x + 3) = x-3

center (1,3) with radius 6

step-by-step explanation:

we must complete the square to find the center and radius of the circle.

first make sure the x and y squared terms have 1 as their coefficients. we also make sure x and y terms together.

we now create space between the x and y terms with parenthesis.

we complete the square by taking the middle terms -2x and the -6y - divide each and square them.

we add the squares to both sides.

simplify.

and write the quadratics in factored form.

the center is (h,k) or (1,3). the radius is the square root of 36 which is 6.
