Question

distance between two station is 300 km. two motorcyclists starts simultaneously from these station and move towards each other. the speed of one of them is 7 k/h more than that of the other. if the distance between them after 2hours of their start is 34km find the speed of each motorcyclist

Answer 1

distance between the two stations=300 km
let the speed of the first motorcycle be x km/hr
so according to the question the second motorcycle will have a speed of (X+7)km/hr.
so after 2 hrs,1 bike will have a speed of 2x and the 2 bike will have a speed of 2(x+7)
so now,
2x+2(x+7)+34=300
 2x+2x+14+34=300
4x+48=300
4x=252
x=63
so first speed is 63 km/hr,and second speed is (63+7)=70 km /hr

Answer 2

Answer:

answer is 63km/ph , 70 km/ph

Step-by-step explanation:

distance between the two stations=300 km

let the speed of the first motorcycle be x km/hr

so according to the question the second motorcycle will have a speed of (X+7)km/hr.

so after 2 hrs,1 bike will have a speed of 2x and the 2 bike will have a speed of 2(x+7)

so now,

2x+2(x+7)+34=300

 2x+2x+14+34=300

4x+48=300

4x=252

x=63

so first speed is 63 km/hr,and second speed is (63+7)=70 km /hr
