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

Although the answer choices are not complete, we may evaluate the probability of each event.

Total silver medals = 99
Great Britain's silver medals = 17
A should be 17/99

Total Russian medals = 82
Russian bronze medals = 32
B should be 32/82 = 16/41

Total gold medals = 137
Chinese gold medals = 38
C should be 38/137

Total US medals = 104
US silver medals = 29
D should be 29/104
