.19. Case study 3
Places A and B are 100 km apart on a highway. One car starts from A and another
from B at the same time. If the cars travel in the same direction at different speeds,
they meet in 5 hours. If they travel towards each other, they meet in 1 hour.
Let speed of the car- i is x km/hr and that of car- ii be y km/hr. then answer the
following
(i) What is the value of x
a) 60 km/hr
b) 65 km/hr
c) 70 km/hr
d) 75 km/hr
(ii) What is the value of y.
a) 50 km/hr
b) 20 km/hr
c) 40 km/hr
d) None of the above
(iii) What is x- y?
a) 30
b) 20
c) 10
d) 40
(IV) What is x + y?
a) 110
b) 85
c) 120

Answer:
Let the speed of car at A be x kmph
and the speed of car at B be y kmph
when the car travel in same direction Relative Speed is x−y
Dist=100km
t=5 hours
∴ Dist =S×T
100=(x−y)5
x−y=20⟶(I)
when car travel in opp direction Relative Speed is x+y
Dist=100km
t=1 hours
Dist=ST
100=(x+y)1
x+y=100⟶(II)
Solving (I) & (II)
x−y=20
x+y=100
2x=120
x=60km/h
y=40km/h
Speed of the car at A =60 km/h
Speed of the car at B=40 km/h
The difference of speeds is 60−40=20
Step-by-step explanation:
answer no 1 - 60km/h
answer no 2- 40km/h
answer no 3- 20
answer no 4- 100
good night and sweet dreams
Have a nice day/good day/great day
