A) 5 hours

B) 7 hours

C) 9 hours

D) 11 hours

Respuesta :

Answer:

5 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Combined speed of the trains = 50 + 60 = 110 mph.  They are increasing the distance between them at 110 mph.

Therefore  the time when they are 550 miles apart  is distance / speed

= 550/110 = 5 hours.
