Answer:it will take 1 hour before they meet.

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance between Fred's house and Jon's house is 6 miles. This means that by the time they meet, both of them would have covered a total distance of 6 miles.

Let t represent the time spent by Fred in covering his own distance and also the time spent by Jon in covering his own distance since they left their houses at the same time.

Distance = speed × time

Distance covered by Fred would be

4 × t = 4t

Distance covered by Jon would be

2 × t = 2t

Since total distance = 6 miles, then

4t + 2t = 6

6t = 6

t = 6/6 = 1

You just received an insurance settlement offer related to an accident you had six years ago. The offer gives you a choice of on
Usimov [2.4K]

answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Option A. $1565 for 72months

Then the total is $112,680

Option B. $1012 for a month for 10 years,

10years is equivalent to 120months

Therefore, the total income is 1012×120

$121,440.

Option 3.

$100,000 once payment.

All the information is correct.

But,

Since the individual did not care if he receives the fund or it is transfer to his heir, so we can ignore the third option of collecting $100000 lump sum.

Also, since he is also ready to wait and he is indifferent about who earns the insurance settlement so he can as well wait and ignore the 72months.

So he can go for the second option because it pays the largest amount and he will receive the most payments.

He will receive $121,440 if he waits for ten years.

Yuri [45]
Let's say that the diameter was 1/2 mile. So the diameter is 1/2,  then you need to find the circumference, aka perimeter of the circle. So 1/2 times 3.14 = 1.57 miles So then you would do 1.57/2 = .785 of an hour If you round to nearest tenth The answer is .8 of an hour.
