Divide both sides by the variable in front of the x. So in this case divide both sides by -5. -5x/5=30/-5 and then when you simplify that you get x=-6. Hope this helped.

Answer:

57.78 km/hr

Step-by-step explanation:

Total time taken, t = 6 hours

Total distance covered, d = 520 km

Distance by car = 260

Distance by train = 520 - 260 = 260 km

Train speed = x

Car speed = 2x

Average speed speed = 3x /2

Speed = distance / time

1.5x = 520 / 6

9x = 520

x = 520 / 9

x = 57.777

Average speed of train = 57.78 km/hr
