increased by 10km/h it would have taken 1 hour less to cover the same
distance. Find the speed of aeroplane.

Answer:
Total Distance = 720km
According to the condition :-
720/x -720/x+10 =1
1/x - 1/x+10 = 1/720
Taking LCM in LHS
x+10-x/x^2+10x = 1/720
10/ x^2+10x = 1/720
by Cross Multiplication
10(720) = x^2+10x
7200 = x^2+10x
x^2+10x - 7200 = 0
x^2+90x-80x -7200 = 0
x(x+90) - 80(x+90) = 0
(x-80) (x+90) = 0
x = 80
x = -90
Reject -90
x = 80
therefore, the speed of aeroplane is 80km/h
