This question has been taken from Book:- ML aggarwal, Avichal publication, class10th, quadratic equation in one variable, chapter 5, exercise 5.5
This is an important ques
An aeroplane flying with a wind of 30 km/hr takes 40 minutes less to fly 3600 km, than what it would have taken to fly against the same wind. Find the planes speed of flying in still air.
Question no.30 , ML Aggarwal, chapter 5, exercise 5.5, quadratic equation in one variable, ICSE board,
Solution:
Let the speed of the plane in still air = x km/hr
Speed of wind = 30 km/hr
Distance = 3600 km
