One jogger begins his run on a path at a rate of 6 miles per hour. A second jogger starts at the same point of the path as the f

irst jogger, but jogs at a rate of 6.5 miles per hour. The second jogger begins 15 minutes after the first jogger. How long will it take the second jogger to catch up to the first jogger?

Answer:

The answer to your question is: three hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

data

Jogger 1 = 6 mi/h

Jogger 2 = 6.5 miles/h , starts 15 min (0.25 h) after the first Jogger

Time when the second jogger catch the first jogger = ?

Process

Advantage of the first jogger    d = vt = 6(0.25) = 1.5 mi

Distance where they meet       1.5 + 6t = 6.5t

Find the t value                          6.5t - 6t = 1.5

                                                   0.5 t = 1.5

                                                    t = 1.5 / 0.5

                                                    t = 3 hours

Answer:

1) b and m

2) m∠8=m∠6

3) 160°

4)x=60°

Step-by-step explanation:

1) all straight lines sum to 180°

subtract the angles given from 180°

the other angle for b is 25°, while the other angle for m is 155°

so we can see that the angles for both lines are the same, hence they are parallel.

2) ∠8 should be the same as ∠6, ∠10 should be the same as ∠3, ∠7 same as ∠5 and ∠9 same as ∠4

in the options we are only given '∠8 should be the same as ∠6' as the correct answer, so we take that.

3) from the image we can see that both horizontal lines are parallel to each other, so both angles on the lines should be same, so ∠CET would be (2x-16)°

(2x-16)°+(7x+20)°=180°

we get x=20(nearest whole number)

∠CED=7x+20=7(20)+20=160°

4) since we need to show that they are parallel,

(2x+30)°=(4x-90)°

2x-4x=-90-30

-2x=-120

x=60

we then plug the x value into the two equations, in which we get 150° for both the angles [2(60)+30=4(60)-90] ⇒ (150=150)

I hope u understand it the way I put it.
