Answer: QUESTION:
A truck driver travels 200 km east from Delhi to Moradabad, Then, he travels 80 km
each day eastwards for the next 5 days and arrives at Kathmandu, From
Kathmandu, he drives 350 km west to Bareilly, How far is he from his starting
point?
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : A truck driver travels 200 km east from Delhi to Moradabad, Then, he travels 80 km each day eastwards for the next 5 days and arrives at Kathmandu, From Kathmandu, he drives 350 km west to Bareilly,
To find : How far is he from his starting point?
Solution:
Let say starting point is 0 N , 0 E
truck driver travels 200 km east from Delhi to Moradabad
hence at mordabad his position is 0 N , 200 km E
Then, he travels 80 km each day eastwards for the next 5 days and arrives at Kathmandu,
=> Travelled = 50 x 80 = 400 km East
So position at kathmandu = 0N , 200 + 400 km East
= 0 N, 600 km East
From Kathmandu, he drives 350 km west to Bareilly,
=> 350 km west = - 350 km East
=> Position at Bareilly is 0N , 600 - 350 km East
= 0 N , 250 km East
starting point is 0 N , 0 E
Ending point 0 N , 350 km E
Distance = 350 km
He is 350 km from starting point
