Answer the following:

A bus travels at v km per hour. It is going from Daspur to Beespur. After the bus has travelled 5 hours, Beespur is still 20 km away. What is the distance from Daspur to Beespur? Express it using v.

Here,


According to the question,


We know that,


Speed = v km/hr


Now,


We have to calculate the distance between Daspur to Beespur


So,


At first we need the distance travelled in 5 hours


Thus,


Distance travelled in five hours = 5 × v


= 5v


Hence,


The total distance between Daspur and Beespur = (dist. Travelled in 5 hours) + 20


= 5v + 20
