Therefore, t=88165h=88×60165=32min.
Correct Answer: 170 km, 8:50 pm
Let two trains meet at a km from X 97). A car starts running with the initial speed of 40 km/h with
its speed increasing every hour by 5 km/ h. How many hours
[Time taken by M to cover (450 - a) km] - will it take to cover a distance of 385 km?
=(450−a)80−a60=4060
Correct Answer: 7 h
= 385=n2(80+5n−5)
=17060h=2h50min
770=5n2+75n
n2+15n−154=0
So, the two trains will meet 2 h 50 min after 6 : 00 pm.
n2+22n−7n−154=0
It means that the two trains will meet at 8 : 50 pm.
n(n+22)−7(n+22)=0
96). Two cars A and B are running towards each other from two
different places 88 km apart. If the ratio of the speeds of the cars n=7
A and B is 5 : 6 and the speed of the car B is 90 km/h, after what
time will they meet each other?
98). In a kilometer race between A and B, A wins by 60 m or 12
seconds. How long does A take to finish the race?
A). 38 min B). 39 min
A wins by 60 m or 12 seconds.
Then, speed of B = 6X

Hence, B will take 10005 Therefore, if the length of race is 5m, then A will win by 1 m.
Therefore, the length of the race will be 5 times the lead = 25×5
As A wins by 12 seconds, A will take 12 seconds lesser to
complete the race.
= 125 meters.
Thus A will complete the race in 200 - 12 = 188 seconds.
=30 sec.
= 125 meter;
A runs 114
