1. Two subway trains in Toronto are 70 km apart and leave at the same time and travel towards each other.  If the speed of train#1 is 75 km/hr and the speed of train#2 is 65 km/hr, how long will it take for the two trains to meet?


a. 25 min.

b. 30 min.  -- answer 

c. 35 min. 

d. 40 min.


Solution 


formula:


Distance 

= speed x time

 

Let 

t = time of travel 

(note that the time of travel of the two trains will be the same). 


d = distance traveled by train #1


70 - d

= distance traveled by train #2



equation1:  train#1


d = 75 * t

d = 75t



equation2:  train#2 


70 - d = 65 * t

70 - d = 65t



by substituting the value of d in equation1 into equation2, we can now solve for t,


70 - d = 65t

70 - 75t = 65t

70 = 65t + 75t

70 = 140t

t = 70/140

t = 0.5 hr  (30 min.)




2. The base of a right triangle is 12 ft. If the area of the triangle is 30 square feet, what is  the height of the triangle. 


a. 5 ft  --- answer 

b. 6 ft

c. 12 ft

d. 13 ft


Solution 


formula:


Area of right triangle

= 1/2 * base * height


A = 1/2  b * h


Given

Area = 30 sqft

base = 12 ft


A = 1/2  b * h

30 = 1/2  * 12 * h

30 = 6 * h

30 = 6h

h = 30/6

h = 5 ft
