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

Approximately how many degrees are in the measure of an interior angle of a regular seven sided polygon
kramer
The interior angle of a regular polygon is equal to each other since all sides of the polygon are congruent. The formula that expresses the relation of the sides of the polygon and the measurement of the interior angle is (n2)*180/n where n is 7. Each interior angle then measures 128.6 degrees.
