Answer:

The competition took 12.5 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the time taken by Achilles to complete the competition is h hours.

Now, Achilles runs at a speed of 13 mph while the Turtle moves at a speed of 1 mph.

So, the competition was 13h miles long.

Now, Turtle will take h hours to complete h miles of the competition.

Now, given that (13h - h) = 2.5

⇒ 12h = 2.5

⇒ h = 0.208 hours.

⇒ h = 12.5 minutes.

Therefore, the competition took 12.5 minutes. (Answer)

The bearing from the Pine Knob fire tower to the Colt Station fire tower is N 65° E, and the two towers are 31 kilometers apart.
suter [353]

The distance are

a. 42.42

b. 15. 52

<h3>How to solve for the distance</h3>

80 = 65 + <ABC

<ABC = 80 - 65

= 15

Through the use of sine rule we would have

By using sine rule,

Sine 15/a = sine 135/b =

sin 30/30.

Next we have to solve b by cross multiplying

b = (30× sin135) / sin 30

= 21.21/0.5

b = 42.42 km

Also, the value of a will be:

= (42.42 × sin 15) / sin 135

= 10.98/0.7071

= 15.52
