Two trains, Train A and Train B weigh a total of 349 tons. Train A is heavier than Train B. The difference in their weights is 2
49 tons. What is the weight of each train?
1 answer:
Answer:
Train A = 299 tons Train B = 50 tons
Step-by-step explanation:
Train A = x
Train B = y
x+y = 349
x= y +249
Plug in one equation into another
y+249+y= 349
Simplify
2y+249=349
Subtract 249 from both sides
2y=100
Divide both sides by 2
y=50
Plug it into the x equation to solve for x
x+50=349
-50 from both sides
x=299
