Mr. Sawyer drove his car from his home to New York at the rate of 45 mph and returned over the same road at the rate of 40 mph.

AveGali [126]

Answer: Time taken by him in going = 8 hours

Time taken by him in returning = 9 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total distance from home to New York is x miles,

$\text{ Since, Time} = \frac{\text{Distance}}{\text{Speed}}$

Also, he drove his car from his home to New York at the rate of 45 mph,

⇒ $\text{ Time taken by him in going } = \frac{x}{45}\text{ hours}$

And, returned over the same road at the rate of 40 mph.

⇒ $\text{ Time taken by him in returning } = \frac{x}{40}\text{ hours}$

According to the question,

Time taken by him in returning - Time taken by him in going = 30 minutes = 1/2 hours, ( 1 hours = 60 minutes )

⇒ $\frac{x}{40}-\frac{x}{45}=\frac{1}{2}$

⇒ $\frac{9x}{360}-\frac{8x}{360}=\frac{1}{2}$

⇒ $\frac{x}{360} = \farc{1}{2}$

⇒ $2x=720$

⇒ $x=360\text{ miles}$

Hence, the total distance from home to New York = x miles = 360 miles

⇒ $\text{ Time taken by him in going } = \frac{x}{45}\text{ hours}$

$=\frac{360}{45}=8\text{ hours}$

⇒ $\text{ Time taken by him in returning } = \frac{x}{40}\text{ hours}$

$=\frac{360}{40}=9\text{ hours}$
