Question

A racehorse starts chasing a wild pony 3 hours after the pony bolts the stable. The pony runs through the entire country of alb. Texas jumping 3 streams and crossing four 10 meter roads. The racehorse finally catches up with the pony after four hours by the time the sun had set and the moon was up in the sky for 4 hours. If the average speed of the racehorse is 73kmph then average speed of the wild pony is?

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Time taken by horse - 4 hours.

Since the pony left the stable 3 hours earlier,

time taken by pony - 7 hrs.

Distance covered by both is same when the horse catches up with the pony.

Using the formula

time × speed = distance

we make equation 73 × 4 = 7x.

Thus speed of pony is 73 × 4 / 7.

= 41.71
