Answer:
The speed of the first train is 45 mph and the speed of the second train is 75 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the speed of the first train in mph. Since the second train, is 30 mph faster then the first, therefore the speed of the second train is (x + 30).
The first train leaves at 1:00 pm, therefore at 6:00 pm, the time taken is 5 hours. Therefore the distance covered by the first train at 6:00 pm = x mph * 5 hours = 5x miles
The second train leaves at 3:00 pm, therefore at 6:00 pm, the time taken is 3 hours. Therefore the distance covered by the second train at 6:00 pm = (x + 30) mph * 3 hours = (3x + 90) miles
Since the second train overtakes the first at 6:00 pm, hence:
3x + 90 = 5x
2x = 90
x = 45
Therefore the speed of the first train is 45 mph and the speed of the second train is 75 mph (45 mph + 30 mph).

Supplementary angles are two angles that add up to 180°.
STEP 1:
find the value of x
x= smaller angle
10x + 48= larger angle
Add the two angles above to equal 180.
x + (10x + 48)= 180
combine like terms
11x + 48= 180
subtract 48 from both sides
11x= 132
divide both sides by 11
x= 12° smaller angle
STEP 2:
find the value of the second angle
=10x + 48
=10(12) + 48
=120 + 48
=168° larger angle
CHECK:
12° + 168°= 180°
180°= 180°
ANSWER: The smaller angle is 12° and the larger angle is 168°.
Hope this helps! :)
