Question

a plane left 30 minutes later than the scheduled time and in order to reach the destination 1500 km away in time it had to increase its speed by 100 km per hour from the usual speed find the usual speed​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

answer

Let the usual time taken by the aeroplane = x km/hr

Distance to the destination = 1500 km

Case (i)

Speed = Distance / Time = (1500 / x) Hrs

Case (iI)

Time taken by the aeroplane = (x - 1/2) Hrs

Distance to the destination = 1500 km

Speed = Distance / Time = 1500 / (x - 1/2) Hrs

Increased speed = 250 km/hr

⇒ [1500 / (x - 1/2)] - [1500 / x] = 250

⇒ 1/(2x2 - x) = 1/6

⇒ 2x2 - x = 6

⇒ (x - 2)(2x + 3) = 0

⇒ x = 2 or -3/2

Since, the time can not be negative,

The usual time taken by the aeroplane = 2 hrs

and the usual speed = (1500 / 2) = 750 km/hr.
