A man covers a distance of 24km in 3whole 1/2 hours partly on foot at the speed of 4.5km/h and parly on bicycle at the speed of 10 km /h .find the distance covered on foot
Answers
Answer:
Let the distance covered on foot be 's'.
Total distance covered is 24 km.
The distance covered by bicycle is '24-s'.
Speed on foot is 4.5 km/h.
Speed on bicycle is 10 km/hr.
Total time cover by foot and bicycle = 3.5 hours.
We know, Time Distance Speed
Then,
4.5 + 24-s 10 =1 3.5
Solving the equation,
10s+4.5(24-s) 4.5x10 3.5
10s+108-4.58 45 3.5
108 + 5.5s 3.5 x 45
108 5.5s: = 157.5
5.5s 157.5 - 108
5.58 = 49.5
s= 49.5 5.5
8=9
