Step-by-step explanation:

d = the distance in one direction.

the time t1 it took group 1 was

t1 = d/6 + d/4

and t2 for group 2 moving with speed2 all the way

t2 = (d+d)/speed2

we know

2d = 24 miles

d = 12 miles

t1 = t2

so,

12/6 + 12/4 = 24/speed2

2 + 3 = 24/speed2

5 = 24/ speed2

5×speed2 = 24

speed2 = 24/5 = 4.8 mph

the second group moved with 4.8 mph.

What is the answer to this
Arisa [49]

Answer:

x = 20, <S = 47 degrees, <P = 131 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

27 + x + 119 + 63 + 3x + 71 = 360

4x + 280 = 360

4x = 80

x = 20

<S = 27 + x = 27 + 20 = 47 degrees

<P =  3x + 71 = 3(20) + 71 = 131 degrees

Is 4-heap Nim with heaps of sizes 22, 19, 14, and 11 balanced or unbalanced? Player I's first move is to remove 6 coins from the
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

Player II should remove 14 coins from the heap of size 22.

Step-by-step explanation:

To properly answer this this question, we need to understand the principle and what it is exactly is being asked.

This question revolves round a game of Nim

What is a game of Nim: This is a strategic mathematical game whereby,  two opposing sides or opponent take turns taking away objects from a load or piles. On each turn, a player remove at least an object and may remove any number of objects provided they all come from the same heap/pile.

Now, referring back to the question, we should first understand that:

                        22₂ = 1 0 1 1 0

                         19₂= 1 0 0 1 1

                         14₂= 0 1 1 1 0

                          11₂= 0 1 0 1 1

and also that the “bit sums” are all even, so this is a balanced game.

However, after Player I removes 6 coins from the heap of size 19, Player II should remove 14 coins from the heap of size 22.
