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( "\"225km+=+2.5X+%2B+2.5%2A%28X%2B10%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "Simplify the equation
\n" ); document.write( "\"225+=+2.5X+%2B+2.5X+%2B+25\"
\n" ); document.write( "Combine like terms
\n" ); document.write( "\"225+=+5X+%2B+25\"
\n" ); document.write( "Subtract 25 from both sides
\n" ); document.write( "\"200+=+5X\"
\n" ); document.write( "Divide both sides by 5
\n" ); document.write( "\"highlight%2840+=+X%29\"
\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( "
\n" );
