It will take 50 minutes for the turtle and snail to meet.
because they are all moving at feet per minute we can create a formula
total feet = (turtle feet per minute) + (snail feet per minute)
300 = 5m +1m
combine like terms
300 = 6m
divide both sides by 6 
50=m

A scuba diver descends in the water at a rate of 23 1/2
Makovka662 [10]

The scuba diver's position relative to sea level after the 4.6 minutes is 5.1 ft.

Given:

A scuba diver descends in the water at a rate of 23 1/2  feet per minute for 2.6 minutes.

A scuba diver ascends at a rate of 28 feet per minute for 2 minutes after seeing a big fish.

To find :

The scuba diver's position relative to sea level after the 4.6 minutes.

Solution:

Rate of a scuba diver descending in the water for 2.6 minutes = R _1

R_1= 23\frac{1}{2}ft/min=\frac{47}{2} ft/min

Distance covered by a scuba diver in 2.6 minutes = d_1

d_1=R_1\times 2.6min=\frac{47}{2} ft/min\times 2.6 min=61.1 ft

Rate of a scuba diver ascending for 2 minutes = R _2

R_2= 28ft/min

Distance covered by a scuba diver in 2 minutes = d_2

d_2=R_2\times 2min=28 ft/min\times 2 =56 ft

The position of scuba diver after 4.6 minutes relative to sea level:

d_1-d_2=61.1 ft-56 ft=5.1ft

The scuba diver's position relative to sea level after the 4.6 minutes is 5.1ft.

According to u.s. postal regulations, the girth plus the length of a parcel sent by mail may not exceed 108 inches, where by "gi
Pepsi [2]
Let x represent the side length of the square end, and let d represent the dimension that is the sum of length and girth. Then the volume V is given by
  V = x²(d -4x)
Volume will be maximized when the derivative of V is zero.
  dV/dx = 0 = -12x² +2dx
  0 = -2x(6x -d)
This has solutions
  x = 0, x = d/6

a) The largest possible volume is
  (d/6)²(d -4d/6) = 2(d/6)³
  = 2(108 in/6)³ = 11,664 in³

b) The dimensions of the package with largest volume are
  d/6 = 18 inches square by
  d -4d/6 = d/3 = 36 inches long
