Akash when going slower by 15 Km/hr, reaches late by 45 hours. If he goes faster by 10 Km/hr from his original speed, he reaches early by 20 hours than the original time. Find the distance he covers.
8750 Km
9750 Km
1000 Km
3750 Km
You may solve for D and S by writing the equations as:
Both these equations can be solved quickly to get s = 65 Km/hr, t = 150 hr. Therefore, D = 9750 Km. I want to reiterate that using the first approach is perfectly fine. That's how I would do it. It is better to spend 20 seconds extra and get the right answer instead of getting it wrong with something you are not comfortable with. Alternate Solution: Let the normal speed be s and the normal time be t The distance D = st. When speed decreases by 15 kmph, time increases by 45 hours. The distance will still be the same. D = (s-15)(t+45) st = (s-15)(t+45) st = st +45s - 15t - 15*45 45s - 15t - 15*45 = 0 3s -t -45 = 0 3s = t + 45 t = 3s - 45 When speed increases by 10 kmph, time decreases by 20 hours. The distance will still be the same. D = (s+10)(t-20) st = (s+10)(t-20) st = st -20s + 10t - 10*20 -20s + 10t - 10*20 = 0 -2s +t -20 = 0 t = 20 + 2s So, t = 3s - 45 and t = 20 + 2s 3s - 45 = 20 + 2s s = 65 So speed = s = 65 kmph t = 20 + 2s time = t = 20 + 2*65 = 150 Distance = st = 65 * 150 = 9750 km
