Guys, does anyone know the answer?
get a train travels 360 km at a uniform speed if the speed had been 5 km more from screen.
A train travels 360 km at a uniform speed. If the speed had been 5 km /hr more, it would have taken 1 hour less for the same journey. Form the quadratic equation to find the speed of the train.

A train travels 360 km at a uniform speed. If the speed had been 5 km /hr more, it would have taken 1 hour less for the same journey. Form the quadratic equation to find the speed of the train.
Open in App Solution Given, Distance = 360 km Let the speed be x , then time taken t = 360 x
If speed is increased by 5 km/h speed will be
( x + 5 ) km/h
Distance is the same
t = 360 ( x + 5 )
time with original speed - time with increased speed
= 1 therefore, 360 x − 360 ( x + 5 ) = 1 L C M = x ( x + 5 ) Hence, 360 ( x + 5 ) − 360 x x ( x + 5 ) = 1 360 x + 1800 − 360 x = x ( x + 5 ) x 2 + 5 x = 1800 x 2 + 5 x − 1800 = 0 x 2 + 45 x − 40 x − 1800 = 0 x ( x + 45 ) − 40 ( x + 45 ) = 0 ( x − 40 ) ( x + 45 ) = 0 x = 40 k m h r ,
So the speed of the train is 40 km/hr. We have discarded the other value as the negative value of speed
( − 45 ) is not possible. Suggest Corrections 132

Given distance=360 km.Solution Verified by Toppr
Let the speed of the train be x km/hr.
Speed when increased by 5 km/hr =(x+5) km/hr
x 360 − (x+5) 360 =1 x(x+5) [360x+1800−360x] =1 x 2 +5x−1800=0 x 2 +45x−40x−1800=0 x(x+45)−40(x+45)=0 (x−40)(x+45)=0 x=40,−45
The speed of the train is 40 km/hr.

Ex 4.3 ,8 A train travels 360 km at a uniform speed. If the speed had been 5 km/h more, it would have taken 1 hour less for the same journey. Find the speed of the train. Let the speed of train be x km/hr From (1) (x + 5) (360/ " 1" ) = 360 (x + 5) ((360 )/ ) = 360 (x + 5) (360 x ) = 360x x(360 x) + 5(360 x ) = 360 x 360x x2 +5(360) 5x = 360 x 360x x2 + 1800 5x = 360 x 360x x2 + 1800 5x 360 x = 0 x2 5x 360 x + 360x + 1800 = 0 x2 5x + 1800 = 0 0 = x2 + 5x 1800 x2 + 5x 1800 = 0 We factorize by splitting the middle term method x2 + 45x 40x 1800 = 0 x (x + 45) 40 (x + 45) = 0 (x + 45) (x 40) = 0 Hence x = 45, x = 40 are the roots of the equation We know that Speed of train = x So, x cannot be negative x = 40 is the solution So, Speed of train = x = 40 km/hr
