Answer 1

Answer:

The equation for the speed of the train is: 162 = 3x

I think the speed of the train is 54 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that:

y = distance in miles

x = speed of train (miles/hour)

t = time traveled from the departing station (hours)

The equation: y = xt is given, we can therefore substitute the give values:

y = xt or tx

162 = 3x (This would be the equation)

Now we can find x by diving 3 on both sides of "="

162/3 = x

54 = x (This would be the speed of train)

Hope this helps!

Answer 2

X=y/t or 162/3
Speed is 54mph
