    Answer: they are 38 miles apart.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Distance = speed * time

    At 8:00 A. M., a train leaves a station and travels at a rate of 49 mph. At 10:00 A. M, the total time spent by the train is 10 - 8 = 2 hour.

    Distance covered by the train is

    49 * 2 = 98 miles

    At 9:00 A. M., a second train leaves the same station on the same track and travels in the direction of the first train at 60 mph. At 10:00 A. M, the total time spent by the other train is 10 - 9 = 1 hour.

    Distance covered by the second train is

    60 * 1 = 60 miles

    Therefore, their distance apart is

    98 - 60 = 38 miles
