Train distance

Two trains traveling in opposite directions meet at 8:00. How many km apart are they at 8:20 when one goes at 75 km/h and the other at 120 km/h?

Final Answer:

a =  15 km
b =  65 km

Step-by-step explanation:

t=20/60=310.3333 h v1=75 km/h v2=120 km/h a=(v2v1) t=(12075) 0.3333=15 km
b=(v2+v1) t=(120+75) 0.3333=65 km
