Read Solution (Total 4)
-
- since distance=24 km
let jake speed=x kmph
paul speed=y kmph
a/c to question
x+y=7
or
y=7-x
now,
24/x+24/y=14
or 24/x+24/7-x=14
or
1/x+1/7-x=14/24=7/12
x+7-x/7x-x*x=7/12
by solving
x=3,4
or
y=4,3
by using option
4km/h - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(30) No(0)
- ans is 4km/hour
let jack's speed x
24/x + 24/(7-x)=14
=> x=4 or x=3
as jack is faster. ans id 4km/hr - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(11) No(0)
- let speed of j & p is x & y than
a/c to Q sum ofspeed x+y=7
sum of time 24/x + 24/y =14 after both eq. x=4 & y=3

- 4 km/hr
4+3=7
4*3=12
and jack speed>paul speed - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
