Due 5/2
Train A
leaves the station heading west at 50mph.
3 hours later Train B starts heading west at 80mph. They are both going to a destination that is
300 miles away. Will Train B ever catch
Train A? If so, when? If not, where will Train B be when Train A
reaches the destination?
again klike week 2 i have made a table:
ReplyDeletemph: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
train a: 50 100 150 200 250 300 350
train b: 0 0 0 80 160 240 320
and train b will not catch up to train a it will be behind by 60 miles when train a reaches its destination.
I agree also u have to make a chart to compare them both Train b will be left behind 60 miles & Train B will not catch up with train a - mph , 1,2,3,4,5,6,7 train A. 50.100,150,200,250,300,350 Train B. 0,0,0,80,160,240,320
DeleteTrain B will never catch up. If you make a chart you will notice that that when Train A reaches it destination, Train B will be 60 miles behind.
ReplyDeleteI agree with nikola because if you make a chart. It will show that when train A reaches its destination train B will be 60 miles behind.This proves that train B will reach its destnation last
DeleteYou should make a chart. And you will figure out that train a will go faster. It will go 60 miles faster.
ReplyDeleteTrain B will never catch up with Train A. I can prove it by making a graph.
ReplyDeleteTrain A
miles 50 100 150 200 300 350
hours 1 2 3 4 5 6
Train B
miles 0 0 0 80 160 240 320
hours 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 Train B will never catch up because train b will be 60 .........................................miles behind of train A.
I agree with everyone who says that Train B will never catch up with Train A.
ReplyDeleteAs they have said, Train B will only have gone 240 miles when Train A reaches it's destination, difference of 60 miles.
This week, we worked on OAA practice packets to get ourselves ready for the upcoming Math OAA.
Yes, I agree that train A will always be ahead and train be will never catch up. It will take only 6 hours for train A to reach its final point and by that time, train B will still only be at 240 miles. There is a 60 mile difference between the two. (300-240=60)
