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

olasank [31]

Answer:

<h2>88 cars</h2><h2>132 trucks</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a ratio problem, the ratio of  cars to trucks

for every 4 cars, there are 6 trucks

represented as a ratio we have 4:6

1. how many of them are cars

applying the part to whole strategy we have

4+6 = 10

let cars be x

\frac{4}{10}= \frac{x}{220}  \\\\x= \frac{220*4}{10} \\\\x= 880/10\\\\x= 88 cars

2.  how many of them are trucks?

let trucks be y

\frac{6}{10}= \frac{y}{220}  \\\\x= \frac{220*6}{10} \\\\y= 1320/10 \\\\y= 132 trucks
