Answer:

About 1 hour and 16 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

From the problem, we can think that the distance between them is narrowing 11 km/hr (8 + 3). Therefore, after one hour the herd and the ranch hand are 3 km apart. We can then use 11 km/hr from earlier, and get the answer of 1 hour and 3/11 of an hour, which is about 1 hour and 16 minutes.

A dealer sold 500 tennis racquets some were sold at $20 each and the rest were sold at $45 each. The total receipts from these s
arlik [135]

Answer:

He sold 100 rackets for $ 20

Step-by-step explanation:

To start, we have to make 2 equations, one that represents the number of rackets and the other the money

x + y = 500

x * 20 + y * 45 = 20000

we clear x in the first equation

x + y = 500

x = 500 - y

we replace x in the second equation with (500 - y)

x * 20 + y * 45 = 20000

(500 - y) * 20 + y * 45 = 20000

10000 - 20y + 45y = 20000

-20y + 45y = 20000 - 10000

25y = 10000

y = 10000/25

y = 400

we replace x in the first equation with the value obtained

x = 500 - y

x = 500 - 400

x = 100

He sold 100 rackets for $ 20

Arisa [49]
There are 26 possible lowercase letters, 26 possible uppercase letters, and 10 possible numbers (0-9). 26+26+10=62 That means there's a 1/62 chance that they get one letter right. But there's 15 letters. They're chance would decrease each time to get it exact. 1/62 divided by 15/1 = 1/832 So there is a 1 in 832 chance that the hacker guesses it correct first try with that information.
