train and that of the car.
Answers
Answer:
Let the speed of the train be ‘x’ km/hr and the speed of the car be ‘y’ km/hr.
It is given that he travels 400 km partly by train and the rest i.e. (600-400) = 200 km by car
To travels this distance he takes 6 hours 30 minutes which is equal to
Also it is given that he travels 200 km by train and the rest i.e. (600-200) = 400 km by car and the time taken is half an hour longer i.e.
Distance = Speed × Time
Now,
→ equation 1
→ equation 2
Multiplying Equation 2 with 2 we get
→ equation 3
Subtracting [Equation 3] from [Equation 2] we get,
Now substituting the value of y in [Equation 2] we get
Thus the speed of the train is 100 km/hr and speed of the car is 80 km/hr.
