(#M40000663) TCS QUESTION Keep an EYE

In a flight of 600 km, an aircraft was slowed down due to bad weather. Its average speed for the trip was reduced by 200 km/hr and the time of flight increased by 30 minutes. The duration of the flight is:
option
(a) 1 hour
(b) 2 hours
(c) 3 hours
(d) 4 hours

Solution

suppose avg speed of aircraft is v km/hr,and it takes t hr to trip 600 km.
then t=600/v.......(1)
now avg speed slowed down by 200 km/hr and it takes 30 more minutes that means now it takes t+30/60=t+1/2 hr and speed is v-200
now time=distance/speed=>t+1/2=600/(v-200)
2t+1=1200/(v-200)
(2t+1)(v-200)=1200
(2t+1)((600/t)-200))=1200 from (1)
on solving it t= -3/2 or 1
time cant be -ve,hence answer is 1 hr.
