A point on the graph (for train b) that is exact is (2,250). From the origin, the rise is 250 and the run is 2. Rise/run would give us 250/2, which is 125. This means that train B travels 125mi every hour. For train A, we subtract the distance from hour 2 from hour 3 to get the miles per hour (because 3-2=1, subtracting the distance of hour 3 from 2 will give us the distance in 1 hour). 180-120= 60, meaning train A travels at 60mph. 60<125, meaning A

What is the definition of mean???

Scilla [17]

Mean, in terms of math, is the total added values of all the data in a set divided by the number of data <em>in</em> the set. Make sense? If not, here' an example...

Let's say this is my data set:
1, 2, 5, 4, 3, 8, 7, 4, 6,10

To find the mean...
Step 1: Add all of them together.
1+2+5+4+3+8+7+4+6+10 is what? 50. Now that you have this number...
Step 2: Divide by the amount there are. Basically, count up all of the numbers. How many are there? There are 10. Finally...
Step 3: Divide. 50/10 is 5, so the mean of this data set would be 5. Get it? I sure hoped this helped :)

Factor out the coefficient of the variable 5/6s+2/3

DochEvi [55]

Okay. so I'm gonna assume you know what factor out means--were gonna take out 5/6. what we need to know is, how does that affect our ending number 2/3? well, we're gonna have 5/6 times some stuff first off, right?

5/6 ( )

so what's in the parenthesis? well, if we distribute in our mind, S would just have to be by itself for it to work out. so we have

5/6 ( s )

but what about 2/3? well, if we're multiplying everything on the inside by 5/6, how can be get it to cancel and leave 2/3 alone? we could divide 2/3 by 5/6, right?

5/6 ( s + (2/3) / (5/6) )

now, when we distribute our 5/6, we'll have just 2/3 at the end. now let's simplify that end term so it looks a little better. if we divide by a fracion, that's the same as multiplying by the flipped version, so let's do that.

2/3 / 5/6 = 2/3 × 6/5 = 2 (6) / 5 (3) = 12/15

we can reduce 12/15 by dividing the top and bottom by three.

= 4/5

so our final answer would be:

5/6 [S + 4/5] you can redistribute to make sure it matches. Anyway, hope that helps!
