Two trains leave the station at the same time, one heading east and the other west. The eastbound train travels at 100 miles per hour. The westbound train travels at 90 miles per hour. How long will it take for the two trains to be 304 miles apart? ( this is timed plz someone help)

Solving for the elapsed time

distance traveled = (speed of first train + speed of second train) * elapsed time

280 miles = (95 mph + 105 mph) * elapsed time

280 miles = 200 mph * elapsed time

elapsed time = 280 miles / 200 mph

elapsed time = 1.4 hours

elapsed time = 1 hour and 24 minutes

It will take 1 hour and 24 minutes for the two trains to be 280 miles apart.

Separation rate is (110+90) mph.

time = distance/rate = 360/200 = 1.8 hrs = 1 hr 48 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

in if you ask questions, the points are taken from your total and given to the one who answered it..

so if i have 30 points and i ask a question for 5 points, then when someone asks a question i will lose 5 points and the answerer earns 5
