Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

卂иรωεƦ:-✌✌

Let original speed of the train be x km/h.

Then, time taken to travel 63 km = 63/x hours

New speed = (x + 6) km/hr

Time taken to travel 72 km = 72/(x + 6) hours

According to the question,

x2 - 39x - 126 = 0

(x - 42)(x + 3) = 0

x = -3 or x = 42

As the speed cannot be negative, x = 42

Thus, the average speed of the train is 42 km/hr.

Answer:

Let average speed be x km/hr.

x

63

+

x+6

72

=3

21(x+6)+24x=x

2

+6x

x

−39x−126=0

(x−42)(x+3)=0

x=42 km/hr
