Answer: Train A = 50 mph; Train B = 30 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
In this case, let's call the speed of both trains as:
Va: speed of train A
Vb: speed of train B
As train A is faster than train B, let's call speed of train B as X; So if Vb is X, then Va would be:
Vb = X
Va = X + 20
If we combine both Speed, we have:
V = Va + Vb = X + X + 20 = 2X + 20
Now that we have an expression for the combined speed, let's recall the formula for speed in general:
V = d/t
Where:
d: distance = 240 miles
t: time = 3 hours
Combining all the data we have:
V = 240/3
but V is 2X + 20 so:
2X + 20 = 240/3
Solving for X:
2X + 20 = 80
2X = 80 - 20
2X = 60
X = 60/2
X = Vb = 30 mph
Now that we know speed of one train, we can know the speed of the other train:
Va = 30 + 20 = 50 mph
Answer:
18 2/3 miles. 4 x 2/3 =8/3 x 7 = 56/3 ÷3 = 18 2/3 miles.
