Question

The distance between two stations is 300 km Two motorcyclists start
simultaneously
from these stations and move towards each other The speed of one of
them is 7 km/h more than that of the other If the distance between
them after 2 hours of their start is 34 km, nd the speed of each
motorcyclist Check your solution

Neha Sethi · Accepted Answer

Let speed of slower motorcycle = x
Then,speed of faster motorcycle =x+7
According to question
2(x+7)+34+2x =300
2x+14+34+2x =300
4x+48 =300
4x =300 -48
4x=252
x=252/4
x=63

Hence speed of slower train =63km/hour
Then,Speed of faster train =63+7=70km/hr
