Let n =  the hours elapsed when the two trains are 660 miles apart.


Let the first train travel east and the second train travel west.

The distance traveled by the first train is

x = (50 mi/h)*(n h) = 50n mi


The distance traveled by the second train is

y = (60 mi/h)*(n h) = 60n h


The distance between the two trains after n hours is

x + y = 50 n + 60n = 110n mi


Because this distance is 660 miles, therefore

110n = 660

n = 6 hours


Answer: 6 hours


I hope this helps. Sorry it took so long

lisov135 [29]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation: For a problem like this, it’s best to use Pythagorean Theorem which is a^2+b^2=c^2 .

In this problem they gave us a and c already so we are trying to find b.

3^2+?=5^2

9+?=25

25-9=16

Find the square root of 16 which is 4

Answer: The distance between the ladder and the slide is 4 meters
