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 ?
let the duration of the flight be x hours . then , 600 / x - 600 / ( x + 1 / 2 ) = 200 x ( 2 x + 1 ) = 3 2 x 2 + x - 3 = 0 ( 2 x + 3 ) ( x - 1 ) = 0 x = 1 hr . answer : a
divide(600, divide(multiply(200, 30), const_10))
