let the usual speed of plane = x km/h

distance = 1250km

then, speed = distance/ time

time =

  time\:  \:  \:  = \frac{1250}{x}

Case 2nd

speed in this case = ( x + 250)km/h

time =  \frac{1250}{x + 250}

now according to question

50min = 5/6hr

 \frac{1250}{x}  -  \frac{1250}{x + 250}  =  \frac{5}{6}

on solving this u will get a quadratic equation

 {x}^{2}  + 250x - 375000

on solving this quadratic equation u will get speed

 {x}^{2}  + 750x - 500x - 375000

here u will get

x = - 750

x = 500

speed = 500 km/h
