To work out speeds you need to know the distance that each train has travelled.
So an equation needs to be formed
x = distance of slower train
x + 40 = distance of faster train   (it is + 40 as the trains were travelling for 2 hours not one hour so 20 x 2 = 40)

so, x + x + 40 = 180
2x + 40 = 180
2x = 140
x = 70

Distance of slower train = 70 miles
Distance of faster train = 70 + 40 = 110 miles

To work out speed divide the distances by 2 as speed = distance/time

speed of slower train = 70/2 = 35mph
speed of faster train = 110/2 = 55mph

Ahat [919]

Step-by-step explanation:

what answer is needed ? the result of the calculation ?

I assume this is the case.

remember that regarding the sequence of operations brackets are first, then exponents, then "dot" operations (× and ÷), and only at the very least come the "dash" operations (+ and -).

and that a combination of - + or + - results in -.

14 + 16 ÷ 2³ - (12 + 3²) ÷ 7 + 2 × (-5) =

14 + 16 ÷ 2³ - (12 + 9) ÷ 7 - 2 × 5 =

14 + 16 ÷ 2³ - 21 ÷ 7 - 2 × 5 =

14 + 16 ÷ 8 - 21 ÷ 7 - 2 × 5 =

14 + 2 - 3 - 10 = 3
