Answer:

The dog will catch the cat at time greater than 33.33 sec

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x------> distance the cat runs before being caught by the dog, if they started running towards each other simultaneously

Remember that

The speed is equal to divide the distance by the time

v=d/t

solve for t

t=d/v

so

equate the time

x/24=(200+x)/30

30x=24(200+x)

30x=4,800+24x

30x-24x=4,800

x=4,800/6=800 m

t=d/v=800/24=33.33 sec

or

t=(800+200)/30=1,000/30=33.33 sec

Remember that

the dog starts running after the cat

therefore

The dog will catch the cat at time greater than 33.33 sec

Choose all which define events A and B as independent events.
Firlakuza [10]

There are 2 answers: Choice 1, Choice 4

=======================================

Why is this? Because we use the rule

P(A & B) = P(A) * P(B)

which only works if events A and B are independent

----

For the first answer choice,

P(A) * P(B) = 0.6*0.4 = 0.24 = P(A & B)

so that matches.

The same applies to the fourth answer choice as well

P(A) * P(B) = 0.3*0.2= 0.06 = P(A & B)

----

The other answer choices don't match up.

The second answer choice has

P(A) * P(B) = 0.3*0.4 = 0.12 but that doesn't match with the 0.70 given

Similarly for the third answer choice,

P(A) * P(B) = 0.5*0.1 = 0.05 which doesn't match with the 0.60
