Towns A and B are 400 miles apart. If a train leaves A heading toward B at 50 miles per hour, how long will it take before it meets another train traveling from B to A at a speed of 30 miles per hour?

from A :50/hour. *x(hour) From B : 30/hour *x(hour) 50 *x +30 *x =400 80 *x=400 x=5(hour) Then the train from A will make 50 *5=250 miles (These is fisik)

The two trains will meet after 5 hours of travel. Train A travels 250 miles, and Train B travels 150 miles during this time. The combined speed of both trains is 80 miles per hour.
