      Question

      A was travelling from point X to point Y. He increased

      his speed by 4 km/h after every hour. He reached his destination in 8 hours. If his initial speed was 40 km/h, then what was his average speed in the whole journey?
      A 50 km/h Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 24 km/h Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 54 km/h Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 44 km/h Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Total distance travelled by A = (8/2) Γ— {2 Γ— 40 + (8 – 1) Γ— 4} = 4 Γ— (80 + 28) = 432 km Required average speed = 432/8 = 54 km/h
