Algebra.Com's Answer #565990 by Stitch(470)![]() ![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! The distance between the stations is 250km and after 2.5 hours the trains are 25km apart. \n" ); document.write( "The total distance that the trains have traveled is 250km - 25km or 225km. \n" ); document.write( "Let X be the speed of the slower train in km/hr \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "Simplify the equation \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "Combine like terms \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "Subtract 25 from both sides \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "Divide both sides by 5 \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "The slower train is moving at 40km/hr. \n" ); document.write( "That means that the faster train is moving at 50km/hr \n" ); document.write( " |
