X = -2
is an equation represented be a straight vertical line parallel to the y-axis
and normal to the x-axis at the point (-2,0)
Time taken for hare to catch up with the tortoise will be found as follows:
time taken=distance/(relative speed)
relative speed=(speed of hare-speed of tortoise)
speed of hare=500/20=25 cm/sec
speed of tortoise=250/50=5 cm/sec
relative speed will be:
(25-5)=20 cm/ sec
thus the total time taken for hare to catch up with the tortoise will be:
1000/20
=50 sec
Answer: 50 sec
-3 = x + x + x
-3 = 3x
-3/3 = x
x = -1
