Answer: 1st train = 364 mph, 2nd train = 356.2
Step-by-step explanation:
Train 1: x + 7.8
Train 2: x
Train 1 + Train 2 = Sum
x + 7.8 + x = 720.2
7.8 + 2x = 720.2
2x = 712.4
x = 356.2
Train 1: x + 7.8
= 356.2 + 7.8
= 364
You divide by 6 to each number then you get x by itself then x equals 10
You multiply by -5 to find any next term. so next two are 500 then -2500
When it is in () it means multiply x=45
