❋Question:

☛A car travels a distance of 560 km in 9.5 hrs partially at a speed of 40 kmph and remaining at 160 kmph. What is the distance it travels at the speed of 160 kmph ?

A. 120 km

B. 240 km✅✅

C. 320 km

D. 360 km

E. 420 km

❋Answer:

Given data are as follows:

  • Total distance covered = 560 km
  • Total time taken = 9.5 hours
  • Partly with speed 40 and rest with 160.

↬ Let the distance covered with speed 40 = x

Then, the distance travelled with speed 160= 560-x

We know,

 ⇢\large{ \sf{speed =  \frac{distance}{time} }} \\  \\ ⇢ \large{ \boxed{ \green{ \sf{time =  \frac{distance}{speed} }}}}

We have total time= 9.5 hours

That means,

Time taken to cover first part + time taken to cover second part = Total time taken.

⇢ \large{ \sf{time \: taken \: in \: 1st \: part =  \frac{x}{40} }} \\  \\ ⇢ \large{ \sf{time \: taken \: in \: 2nd \: part =  \frac{560 - x}{160} }}

The required equation would be

 ⇢\large{ \sf{ \frac{x}{40}  +  \frac{560 - x}{160}  = 9.5}} \\  \\ ⇢ \large{ \sf{ \frac{4x + 560 - x}{160}  =  \frac{19}{2} }} \\  \\ ⇢ \large{ \sf{ \frac{560 + 3x}{160}  =  \frac{19}{2} }} \\  \sf{ \underline{ \underline{ \star{ \green{ \:  \: cross \: multiplying...}}}}} \\  \\  ⇢ \large{ \sf{2(560 + 3x) = 160 \times 19}} \\  \\ ⇢ \large{ \sf{1120 + 6x = 3040}} \\  \\ ⇢ \large{ \sf{6x = 1920}} \\  \\ ⇢ \large{ \sf{x =  \cancel{ \frac{1920}{6}} =  \boxed{320 \: km}}} \\  \\  \large{ \sf{ \boxed{ \therefore{560 - x = 560 - 320 = 240 \: km}}}}

So final answer:

 \therefore{ \boxed{ \large{ \sf{ \orange{distance \: with \: speed 160 = 240 \: km}}}}}
