Question 1097019: Two trains leave Boston at the same time one traveling south and the other traveling north the southbound train travels at 50 mph and the northbound train travels at 60 mph and how many hours will the trains be to 275 miles apart how many miles will each train have traveled
You can put this solution on YOUR website! One train goes south at 50 mph, and the other goes north at 60 mph. Therefore, they are moving away from each other at 110 mph. 275/110=2.5 hours before they are 275 miles apart.
2.5*50=125 miles for the southbound train
2.5*60=150 miles for the northbound train
