If the trains start 100 miles away from each other, how far will the fly travel before it is squashed by the collision? Step through Step Answers would be prefered! 1 solutions Answer 189458 by Alan3354(30959)   on 2010-01-16 18:43:12 (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website! Two trains are heading towards each other on a linear track. One train travels at a speed of 60 miles per hour, and the other at 50 miles per hour. A fly starting at one train travels back and forth at a speed of 100 miles per hour. If the trains start 100 miles away from each other, how far will the fly travel before it is squashed by the collision? ----------------------- The trains approach each other at 110 mph (50 + 60) It takes the trains 100/110 hours to meet. The fly flies at 100 mph for 100/110 hours. The fly's distance = 100*(100/110) miles d =~ 90.91 miles

First, we need to compute the discriminant : . Discriminant d=28 is greater than zero. That means that there are two solutions: . Quadratic expression can be factored: Again, the answer is: 1.64575131106459, -3.64575131106459. Here's your graph: ---------- x = -1 ± sqrt(7) -------------- 3) 2x^2+3x-5=0 do these like the ones above. If you can't factor them, use the quadratic equation. It always works. ------------------- 4) 2x^2+7x+6=0 4) x^2-4x+5=0 5) x^2-10x+28=0
