Answer:

The distance between them in half a minute was 130 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, we will find distance traveled by first and second puppy and then we can find distance between them

First Puppy:

Speed =1.5 m/sec

time =0.5 min =30 second

we know that

distance = speed*time

d_1=1.5\times 30 m

d_1=45m

Second Puppy:

Speed =2.5 m/sec

time =0.5 min =30 second

we know that

distance = speed*time

d_2=2.5\times 30 m

d_2=75m

now, we can find distance between them

so,

The distance between them is

=250-(d_1+d_2)

=250-(45+75)

=130m

So,

the distance between them in half a minute was 130 m

ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

3:45 PM.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that on Thursday afternoon at camp Alice played basketball and went swimming before dinner she spent 45 minutes playing basketball and one hour swimming dinner lasted for an hour. The dinner ended at 5:30 PM.

Since she spent 1 hour for swimming, so 1 hour before 5:30 PM would be 4:30 PM.

To find the time, when Alice started playing basketball, we need to find 45 minutes before 4:30 PM.

30 minutes before 4:30 PM would be 4:00 PM and 15 minutes before 4:00 PM would be 3:45 PM.

Therefore, Alice started playing basket ball at 3:45 PM.
