x the slower train
\n" ); document.write( "D=rt
\n" ); document.write( "3x + 3(x+10) = 450
\n" ); document.write( "6x = 420
\n" ); document.write( "x = 70mph,the slower train. Faster train 80mph
\n" ); document.write( "and checking
\n" ); document.write( "210mi + 240mi = 450mi
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
