Answer 1

Answer:

Solution:

Let A be waiting from x minutes.

and B be waiting from y minutes.

Present time =11:30

Two minutes ago,

(x−2)=

2

1

(y−2)

or, 2x−y=2 ................(i)

and three minutes from now

x+3=

3

2

(y+3)

or, 3x−2y=−3 .....................(ii)

Solving eqn(i) and (ii) we get,

x=7 and y=12

Therefore, A is waiting from 7 minutes

i.e. A arrived 7 minutes before 11:30 i.e. at 11:23
