Step-by-step solution
3 stepsUnderstand the relationship between distance, speed, and time.
The formula for distance is:
Distance = Speed × TimeCalculate the additional distance covered due to the increase in speed.
The speed of X is increased by 20 km/h (assuming "km/n" is a typo for "km/h").
The time duration is 3 hours.Additional distance covered = Increase in speed × Time
Additional distance covered = 20 km/h × 3 hours
Additional distance covered = 60 kmDetermine the effect on the distance between X and Y.
The increase in speed means that X will cover an additional 60 km in 3 hours. Therefore, the distance between X and Y will be 60 km less (if X is moving towards Y) or 60 km more (if X is moving away from Y) than it would have been without the speed increase.
The effect on the distance between X and Y is an additional 60 km covered by X.
