Question

Two trains started from the same place at the same time and traveled in opposite directions at rates which is differed by 20mph in 5 hours they were 500 miles apart find the rate of each plane

Answer 1

5x+5(x+20)=500
5x+5x+100=500
10x=400
x=40
so speeds are 40 mph and 60 mph

Answer 2

speeds are v and v + 20
v = distance / time

v + v + 20 = 500 / 5 = 100
2v = 80
v = 40

speeds of the trains are 40 and 60 mph
