A train travels at a certain average speed for a distanced of $54 \mathrm{~km}$ and then travels a distance of 63 $\mathrm{km}$ at an average speed of $6 \mathrm{~km} / \mathrm{hr}$ more than the first speed. If it takes 3 hours to complete the total journey, what is its first speed?

Let the first speed of the train be $x \mathrm{~km} / \mathrm{h}$. Time taken to cover $54 \mathrm{~km}=\frac{54}{x} h .$ New speed of the train $=(x+6) \mathrm{km} / \mathrm{h}$ $\therefore$ Time...

A train covers a distance of $480 \mathrm{~km}$ at a uniform speed. If the speed had been $8 \mathrm{~km} / \mathrm{hr}$ less then it would have taken 3 hours more to cover the same distance. Find the usual speed of the train.

Let the usual speed of the train be $x \mathrm{~km} / \mathrm{h}$. $\therefore$ Reduced speed of the train $=(x-8) \mathrm{km} / \mathrm{h}$ Total distance to be covered $=480 \mathrm{~km}$ Time...

A binary operation $*$ on the set $(0,1,2,3,4,5)$ is defined as $$ a * b=\left\{\begin{array}{ll} a+b ; & \text { if } a+b<6 \\ a+b-6 ; & \text { if } a+b \geq 6 \end{array}\right. $$ Show that 0 is the identity for this operation and each element a has an inverse $(6-\mathrm{a})$ To find: identity and inverse element

For a binary operation if a*e = a, then e s called the right identity If $\mathrm{e}^{*} \mathrm{a}=\mathrm{a}$ then $\mathrm{e}$ is called the left identity For the given binary operation,...
