How fast the distance between them decrease is 16mph
<h3>How to calculate the speed of an object?</h3>
Given the following parameters
Speed of the hiker = 6mph
If is it 3/11 the rate of a cyclist, then the rate of the cyclist will be:
6 = 3x/11
3x = 66
x = 22mph
Distance between them = 22 - 6
Distance between them = 16mph
Hence how fast the distance between them decreases is 16mph

Answer:
AG = 18
Step-by-step explanation:
The relationship of the segments created is one is 1/3 (shorter) and the other (longer) is 2/3 of the total length.
Lets make x represent AG.
So, 2/3 of x is 12
or
x = 12
Multiply both sides by the reciprocal of
, which is
.
(
)
x = 12 (
) (x is left alone, the fractions = 1 when multiplied)
x = 12 (
) ( 12 times 3 = 36, divided by 2 = 18)
x = 18
Answer: 29
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : Total people in the line = 35
Number of people behind Amy = 15
⇒Number of people in front of Amy = Total people - (Amy and people behind Amy)
= 35-15-1
= 19
According to the question,
Number of people in front of Amy + Number of people behind Jed =24
⇒ 19 + Number of people behind Jed =24
⇒ Number of people behind Jed =24 -19 = 5
Then, Number of people are in front of Jed = 35 - (Jed and people behind Jed)
= 35-(5+1)
= 35-6=29
Hence, there are 29 people are in front of Jed.
