      Question

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

      his speed by 16 km/h after every hour. He reached his destination in 18 hours. If his initial speed was 30 km/h, then what was his average speed in the whole journey?
      A 126 km/h Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 136 km/h Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 166 km/h Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 146 km/h Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Total distance travelled by A = (18/2) Γ— {2 Γ— 30 + (18 – 1) Γ— 16} = 9 Γ— (60 + 272) = 2988 km Required average speed = 2988/18 = 166 km/h
