They will meet at 7:00pm and PASS each other seconds after that. First train should have traveled 370+ miles and the other 430+ miles for a 10 hour trip.

each hour the trains cover exactly 80 miles, right? (train 1 goes 37 miles and train 2 goes 43) – that means that over ten hours they cover 800 total miles (train 1 has gone 370 and train 2 has gone 430).
But yeah, ten hours, so 7 pm – make sense? I hope that helps.

Let r = cost of slower teach r + 6 = cost of quicker teach 2r + 6 = mixed cost of method of trains cost = distance/time 2r + 6 = 450/five = ninety 2r = ninety – 6 = eighty four r = forty two r + 6 = forty two + 6 = forty eight The velocity of the 2 trains is forty two mph and forty eight mph, respectively.
