Question =》
A train covered A certain distance at a uniform speed if
The train had been 5 kilometre per hour faster it would have taken 3 hours less than the secluded time and if the train we slower by 4 kilometre per hour it would have taken 3 hours more than the secluded time find the length of journey.

Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
let the original sped be X km/ h
let the time taken be y hours
length of journey = xy
case 1
speed = (x+5)(y-3) =5y-3x =15
case 2
speed = (x-4)(y+3)= 3x -4y = 12

✰ Qᴜēsᴛíóɴ :-
A train covered a certain distance at a uniform speed. If the train had been 5 kmph faster, it would have taken 3 hours less than the scheduled time. And, if the train were slower by 4 kmph, it would have taken 3 hours more than the scheduled time. Find the length of the journey.
✰ Gîᴠᴇɴ :-
- If the train had been 5 kmph faster, it would have taken 3 hours less than the scheduled time.
- if the train were slower by 4 kmph, it would have taken 3 hours more than the scheduled time.
✰ Tõ Fíɴᴅ :-
- Length of the journey
✰ Sôʟᴜᴛîóɴ :-
Let,
- speed of train = x km/h
- time taken = y hrs
- Length of journey = xy km
(x + 5) (y - 3) = xy
⟹ xy - 3x + 5y + 5 = xy
⟹ 3x - 5y + 15 = 0 _______( 1 )
(x - y) (y + 3) = xy
⟹ xy + 3x - 4y - 12 = xy
⟹ 3x - 4y - 12 = 0 ________( 2 )
( 1 ) - ( 2 ) = -y + 27 = 0
-y = -27
y = 27 hours
( 2 ) ⟹ 3x = 12 + 4 (27)
3x = 12 + 108 = 120
x = 120/3
x = 40 km/h
Length of journey = xy = 27 × 40
= 1080
⛬ The length of the journey is 1080 km
