Answer: [tex]5x=250[/tex] , where x is the speed of the train.

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to calculate speed is given by :-

[tex]\text{Speed}=\frac{\text{Distance}}{\text{Time}}[/tex]

Since, the distance traveled by train = 250 miles

Let x be the speed of the train.

Then, the  equation that can be used to find the speed of the train, if the time to travel 250 miles is 5 hours is given by :-

[tex]x=\frac{250}{5}\\\\\Rightarrow\ 5x=250......................[\text{Multiplying 5 on both sides}][/tex]

The speed of the train is 50 miles per hour if the time to travel 250 miles is 5 hours

Speed

Speed is the ratio of the distance travelled to time taken. It is given by:

Speed = distance / time

Let x represent the speed of the train, The train travel 250 miles is 5 hours, hence:

  • x = 250 miles / 5 hours = 50 miles per hour

The speed of the train is 50 miles per hour
