The sum of the speeds of two trains is 724.3 miles per hour. If the speed of the first train is 11.7 mph faster than that of the
second train, find the speeds of each.
1 answer:
Answer:
A=368 miles
B= 356.3 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Given data
Let the two trains be A and B
A+B=724.3----------1
A-B=11.7--------------2
From eqn 1
A= 724.3-B
put this in place of A in eqn 2
724.3-B-B= 11.7
724.3-2B= 11.7
724.3-11.7= 2B
712.6=2B
B= 712.6/2
B= 356.3 miles
Put B=356.3 in eqn 1
A+356.3=724.3----------1
A= 724.3-356.3
A=368 miles
