Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Akhil starts from his gym to his corporate office at certain speed but after 2 hour he resume his journey and become 1 hour 40 min late due to reducing his speed to 3/4 .If Akhil would have met Akhilesh after 70 km then he will be late by 1 hour 15 minutes .Find the actual speed of Akhilesh.​

Let sat Akhil Speed = x km/Hr

After 2 hrs His speed  become 3/4 means  3x/4 km/Hr

Let say he takes time a hr after that then distance covered

Distance = Speed * Time

x * 2  + (3x/4)a

Time taken With Normal Speed = 1 hr 40 min less = (5/3 hrs)

Time taken with normal speed = 2 + a - 5/3  hr

Distance = x * (2 + a - 5/3 )

Equating both distances

x * 2  + (3x/4)a  =  x * (2 + a - 5/3 )

multiplying with 12

=> 24x + 9ax = 24x + 12ax - 20x

=> 24 + 9a = 24 + 12a - 20

=> 3a = 20

=> a = 20/3

Time taken = with normal speed = 2 + 20/3 - 5/3 =  7 hr

Distance = 2x + (3x/4)(20/3)  = 7x

if  he would have meet after 70 km then this

then he have lost 1 hr 15 mins only

so he would have saved 25 mins in 70 km

70/(3x/4)  - 70/x  =   25/60

=> 280/3x  - 70/x  = 5/12

multiplying by 12x both sides

=>  1120 - 840 = 5x

=> 280 = 5x

=> x = 56

56 km/hr

But if he would have reduced speed after 70 km from start

then time taken is 1 hr 15 min (5/4 hr more than normal)

70/x  + (7x-70)/(3x/4) =  7 + 5/4

=> 70/x  + 28(x-10)/3x   = 7 + 5/4

multiplying by 12x

=> 840 + 112(x-10) = 84x + 15x

=> 840 + 112x - 1120 = 99x

=>  13x = 280

=> x = 280/13 km/hr
