Answers
Answer:
Hi.
Here is your answer------
Let the distance between the school and the house is x km
speed of the boy from house to school = 20 km/hr.
Using formula, Time taken = distance/speed
So, time taken = x/20 hours.
Also,
Speed of the boy from school to the house = 30 km/hr
so, time taken = x/30 hours.
Total time taken = x/20 + x/30
= x/12 hours
Also total distance covered by boy = x +x
= 2 x km.
Using formula,
Average speed = Total distance/ Total time
= 2 x/(x/12)
= 24 km/hr.
Thus, average speed of the boy's journey is 24 km/hr.
Hope this will help u.
Have a nice day.

Answer:
Let the distance between the school and the house is x km
Speed of the boy from house to school=20 km/hr.
Using formula, Time taken=distance
speed
So, time taken=x
20hours
Also,Speed of the boy from school to the house =30 km/hr
So, time taken =x
30hours
Total time taken = x + x =x
20 30 12hours
Also total distance covered by boy =x+x=2x km.
Using formula,
Average speed =Total distance
Total time
2x
x =24 km/hr.
