Algebra 2 Unit 7 Project 3
3) A company makes two electronic circuit boards that require the same resistance. The Pro-X board runs on 120 volts, while the Pro-I board runs on 90 volts. If the current running through the Pro-I board is 15 fewer milliamps (mA) than the current running through the Pro-X board, how much current is running through each board? Which of the following rational equations bests models this situation?
120/x=90/x-15
2) Two trains start from Fort Worth traveling at the same speed. The trip for Train W takes 20 hours, while the trip for Train Z takes 25 hours. If the city Train Z is traveling to is 400 miles farther away than the city Train W is traveling to, how far will Train Z travel in total to reach its destination?
2,000 Miles
