Two cable ferries start moving towards each other from shores A and B. When the pass each other for the first time the distance

to shore B is 100 meters. Once they reach their destinations and start traveling back at the same time. When they meet for the second time, the distance to shore A is 50 meters. What is the distance between the shores Aand B?

As there is no information about the speed of the ferries, we can infer that they move at the same speed.
Therefore, we can say that they cross each other at the same point both on their way and on their way back.
Since the "meeting point" is on a streight line in between the two shores, 100 meters from shore B and 50 meters from shore A, the distance between shore A and B will be 100 + 50 = 150 meters.

Hence, the distance between shores A and B is 150 meters.

Answer:

Mortgage option (3) would be best suited for them.

Step-by-step explanation:

Mortgage option (1) and (2) are more or less the same since, since even if Damarco and Tanya down payments $34,000 (20% of the purchase price), they need to pay the interest for 30 years for both of the cases and even if he pays  about $750   monthly (as for option (1)) or about  $ 9000 annually (as  for option (2))  both may actually be more or less the same amount  since, the annual rate of interest in (2) may increase from the initial rate of 3.5% (but it is very unlikely to increase to over 5%) and option (1) has an annual  fixed rate of interest of 4.25%.

Now, in the option (3) the interest is to be paid for 8 years and the annual rate of interest is also relatively low (only 4%) and if they pay about $18,000 annually with a down-payment of $ 34,000 and  repay the rest of the amount at the end of 8 years,(which would be less than $ 35,000)  they can easily clear their mortgage. Hence, for option (3) they would need to pay lowest total amount and for lowest time to clear the mortgage among the three options. Hence, this would be best suited option for them.

Eric collected 1 1/3 times as many beads as Malik in the beginning. If Eric collected 48 more beads and Malik collected 13 more
-BARSIC- [3]

E = \frac{4M}{3} \\E + 48 = 2(M+13)\\E + 48 = 2M + 26\\\frac{4M}{3}+48 = 2M + 26\\4M + 144 = 6M + 78\\2M = 66\\M = 33

At the beginning, Malik had 33 beads, and Eric had 44, making them have 77 beads in total

At the end, Malik had (33 + 13 =) 46 beads and Eric had (44 + 48 = ) 92 beads.
