the distance covered by the bus = 360 km

Step-by-step explanation:

Let say Say Distance Covered by Bus  = D  km

Speed of Bus = S  km/hr

Time to be taken = D/S  hr

if the speed of the bus would have been increased by 15 km/h, it would have taken two hours less to cover the same distance

=> D/(S + 15)  =  D/S - 2

=> DS = DS + 15D - 2S² - 30S

=> 2S²  + 30S = 15D

if the speed of the bus wolud have decreased by 5 km/h,it would have taken one hour more to cover the same distance.

=>  D/(S - 5)  =  D/S  + 1

=> DS  = DS - 5D  + S² - 5S

=> S² - 5S = 5D

=> 3S² - 15S = 15D

2S²  + 30S =  3S² - 15S

=>S² = 45S

=> S = 45

Speed of Bus = 45 km/hr

S² - 5S = 5D

=> 45² - 5*45 = 5D

=> D = 360

the distance covered by the bus = 360 km
