y = 6x - 4
Substitute the given x values to solve for y.
x = 1:
y = 6(1) - 4
y = 6 - 4
y = 2
1 = 2
x = 3:
y = 6(3) - 4
y = 18 - 4
y = 14
3 = 14
x = 10:
y = 6(10) - 4
y = 60 - 4
y = 56
10 = 56
x y

Answer: the rate of speed for train A is 66 miles per hour.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the speed of train B.
2 trains leave the station at the same time. Train A is traveling 16 miles per hour slower than train B. This means that the speed of train A would be x - 16 miles per hour.
The two trains are 720 miles apart after 4 hours. It means that both trains traveled a total distance of 720 miles in 4 hours.
Distance = speed × time
Distance travelled by train A after 4 hours is
4(x - 16) = 4x - 64
Distance travelled by train B after 4 hours is
4 × x = 4x
Since the total distance travelled by both trains is 720 miles, then
4x - 64 + 4x = 720
8x = 720 - 64 = 656
x = 656/8 = 82 miles per hour
The speed of train A would be
82 - 16 = 66 miles per hour.
If you’re factoring it, it’s
(2x - 1) (x+3)
