Falling at the rate of 2.5 m/s for 45 seconds, the anchor fell
(2.5 m/s) x (45 s) = 112.5 meters .
If it wound up only 40 meters underwater, then it must have fallen
(112.5 m - 40 m) = 72.5 meters
from its storage position on the big cruise ship,
before it ever reached the water.
Since it was falling at the rate of 2.5 m/s, it took
(72.5 m) / (2.5 m/s) = 29 seconds
to get down to the water surface after it started dropping.
Answer:
3 seconds
Step-by-step explanation:
It's quite simple. First, add 5cm to the progress of the insect, counting it as 1 second. Then subtract 2cm because it falls over the next second, thus taking another second. Then finally, plus 5cm, making it 3 seconds. It's not 4 seconds because at 3 seconds it had already reached the top.

Answer: 5 benches and 23 students
Step-by-step explanation:
I will answer in English.
We have E students and B benches.
If we sit 4 students per bench, we have 3 students left.
then:
E = 4*B + 3
And if we sit 5 students per bench, there are two places with no students sited.
E = 5*B - 2
now we can replace the E in the second equation with the right part in the first equation:
4*B + 3 = 5*B - 2
3 + 2 = 5*B - 4*B
5 = B
So we have 5 benches, and:
E = 4*5 + 3 = 23 students.
