Answer:

2 hours 30 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one

Given data

The total distance to be covered= 20miles

Priya runs at a constant speed of 6 miles an hour

Hence Her speed = 6mph

Jada walks at a constant speed of 2 miles an hour

Hence Her speed = 2mph

let the time taken by them to cover the distance be t

Step two:

from speeed= distance/time

distance= speed*time

20=6*t+2*t

20= 6t+2t

20=8t

divide both sides by 8

t= 20/8

t=2.5 hours

That is, it wiil take them 2 hours 30 minutes to meet

The reason is because, the distances covered by them must sum up to 20 miles

SOLUTION

Given the question in the image, the following are the solution steps to answer the question.

STEP 1: State the number of outcomes possible for three tossing of a coin

Since a coin has two possible outcomes and is tossed three times, the total outcomes will be:

$\begin{gathered} 2^3=8 \\ 8\text{ outcomes} \end{gathered}$

STEP 2: Find the number of sample spaces for the three tosses

STEP 3: Get the outcomes of the events for which the second toss is tails

Hence, the answers are given as:

Sample Space:

$\lbrace HHH,HHT,HTH,HTT,THH,THT,TTH,TTT\rbrace$

The event that the second toss is tails:

$\lbrace HTH,HTT,TTH,TTT\rbrace$
