Time Distance and Speed
One day, Eesha started 30 minutes late from home and reached her office 50 minutes late, while driving 25% slower than her usual speed. How much time in minutes does Eesha usually take to reach her office from home
Read Solution (Total 11)
-
- let her usual speed be 100km/h
D=S*T => D=100*T
now she travels 25% slower taking 20mins extra for same distance
therefore
D=75(T+20)
equate both eqns
=> 100T=75(T+20)
=> T=60mins - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(27) No(4)
- Easha need total 30+50min=80 min to reach her office for that day.She got 50-30 min =20 min late to reach her office,so we just simply substract 80min-20 min=60 min
and thus she takes 60 min usaully to reach her office. - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(10) No(3)
- Let distance=y and his usual speed=x
new speed=x*75/100=3x/4.
Nw distance is same but time diff=20min
time=distance/speed
t2-t1=20
y/(3x/4)-y/x=20=>y=60x
now usual time=y/x=>60x/x=60min

- Eesha usually takes time to go her house to office takes 20min in 25% speed. Eesha maintains as usual speed she can reach office 5min only.

- 25% --> 20 then
100% --> ??
==> (20*100)/25
==> 80 min

- actual delay by Esha = 50-30=20 min
since v = k*1/t
v->75/100v
=>v1/v2=t2/t1
=>4/3=t/t+20
=>t=60 min answer - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(1)
- 25%slow=20min late;as he start 30 min late n rich 50min let
so 100%=1hr 20 min - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(6)
- as speed is getting reduced by 1/4.so time will increase by 1/3.so T/3 =20 and T = 60 mins.

- D=S*T
S*T=(S*0.75)*(T+20)
.25*S*T=15*S
T=15/.25
60 - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(1)
- Here the speed is 75/100s=3s/4
now time = 4t/now
4t/3-1=20
so t=60 min
Hope u got it - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(1)
- distance is constant:
so
s*t=3/4(s)(t+20)
st=(3st+60s)/4
4st=3st+60s
: . st=60s
---> t=60 min - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
