Answer 1

Answer:

The three equations:

• y = 15x, wolf
• y = 10x + 15, you
• y = 5x + 20, friend

Compare the equations with wolf and you and with wolf and your friend:

• 15x = 10x + 15
• 5x = 15
• x = 3 seconds

It will take 3 seconds before you are caught by the wolf

• 15x = 5x + 20
• 10x = 20
• x = 2 seconds

It will take 2 seconds before your friend is caught by the wolf, he will be caught a second before you.
