as a reference :Oslo = 0
Train A:
Since t = t
A = 80t +0
Train B
at 8:00 , t = 0
10:00 , train start travel 2 hours later
but it is 500 miles away from Oslo to start with.
B= 500 + -100(t-2)= -100t +200 +500
B = -100t + 700
when does A = B
80t= -100t + 700
180t = 700
t= 700/180 = 70/18 = 35/9 = 3 8/9 hours
3 8/9 hours = 3 + 8/9 hours = 3 hours +8/9*60 minutes
480/9 = minutes = 53.33333 = 53 minutes and 20 seconds
8:00 + 3 Hours + 53 minutes + 20 seconds
Time = 11:53:20
distance from Oslo
dist= 80t= 80*3 8/9 = 311 1/9 Miles
