Question 758267
Two trains are 318 miles apart, and their speeds differ by 24 mph. Find the speed of each train if they are traveling toward each other and will meet in 3 hours. 
***
let x=speed of faster train
x-24=speed of other(slower) train
distance=travel time*speed
..
3x+3(x-24)=318
3x+3x-72=318
6x=390
x=65
x-24=41
speed of faster train=65 mph
speed of other(slower) train=41 mph
