Answer:

6.4 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

The question gave us the following details:

Average speed = 60mph

Time spent on trip = 8 hours

Average speed of express train on way back = 75mph

T = distance/speed

D = distance

V = speed

T = d/v

d = v(t)

d = 60 x 8

= 480

Such that

480/75

= 6.4 hours.

That is 6 hours 40 minutes is the length of time it would take on the trip home.

Thank you!

konstantin123 [22]

Answer: 15.7 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the time in the beginning (in minutes).

Given: The track team is trying to reduce their time for a relay race.

First they reduce their time by t_1=2.1 minutes.

Then they are able to reduce that time by t_2=10

If their final time is 3.96 minutes, then

x-t_1-t_2=3.6\\\Rightarrow\ x=3.6+t_1+t_2\\\Rightarrow\ x=3.6+2.1+10\\\Rightarrow\ x= 15.7

Hence, their beginning time was 15.7 minutes.
