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

How many passwords of 4 digits are there(a)if none of the digits can be repeated?(b)start with 5 and end in an even digit?
liraira [26]

Answer:

5040,56

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to construct pass words of 4 digits

a) None of the digits can be repeated

We have total digits as 0 to 9.

4 digits can be selected form these 10 in 10P4 ways (since order matters in numbers)

No of passwords = 10P4

= 10(9)(8)(7)\\=5040

b) start with 5 and end in even digit

Here we restrain the choices by putting conditions

I digit is compulsorily 5 and hence only one way

Last digit can be any one of 0,2,4,6,8 hence 5 ways

Once first and last selected remaining 2 digits can be selected from remaining 8 digits in 8P2 ways (order counts here)

=56

At Davidson's Bike Rentals, it costs $17 to rent a bike for 3 hours.
weqwewe [10]

Answer:

$5.67

Step-by-step explanation:

All you have to do is 17 divided by 3 to figure out how much it costs for one hour, that equals 5.666, but you have to round it to the nearest cent, which equals 5.67. ;)
