Answer 1

paper leaked balee canceled

Answer 2

Sol:
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.

Sry i didn't see ur qus that is 100 and wrote 250...
The ans should be written same way
