the speed of train a is 6 mph slower than the speed of trainb. train a travels 200 miles in the same time it takes train b to travel 230 miles. find the speed of each train.
let the speed of train a is x and that of train b is y y-x=6 let the time taken to reach this distance is t xt=200 yt=230 x/y=20/23 by solving the to equations simultaneously x=40 mph y=46 mph
