The express train to Bratislava went at a speed of 80 km/h, and the express train to Poprad went at a speed of 90 km/h. How far from Poprad will the express trains run?

Final Answer:

x =  160 km

Step-by-step explanation:

v1=80 km/h v2=90 km/h  340=v1 t+v2 t 340=80 t+90 t  170t=340  t=170340=2  t=2  x=v1 t=80 2=160 km
