Answer: Let x be the speed of the eastbound train.
Then the speed of the westbound train is x+3 mph.
We can set up the following equation using the distance formula (rate x time = distance)
x*4 = 648/2 + (x+3)*4
Solving for x,
x= 42
So the speed of the eastbound train is 42 mph and the speed of the westbound train is 45 mph.
