Answer:

225\:\text{minutes}

Step-by-step explanation:

To navigate through this problem, start by finding how much each senator can complete in a fixed amount of time. I'll choose 10 as it's the greatest common factor of 30 and 50.

In 10 minutes, the junior senator can complete \frac{10}{50}=\frac{1}{5} of the labyrinth.

In 10 minutes, the senior senator can complete \frac{10}{30}=\frac{1}{3} of the labyrinth.

Therefore, working together, they can complete \frac{1}{5}+\frac{1}{3}=\frac{8}{15} of the labyrinth in 10 minutes. Thus, it will take them \frac{15}{8}\cdot 10 \text{ minutes}=18.75\:\text{minutes} to complete one labyrinth.

The amount of time it take them to complete 12 labyrinths is then 18.75\cdot 12 =\boxed{225\:\text{minutes}}

UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

D- The blackcaps will begin nesting at their wintering sites in Spain or the United Kingdom, resulting in a larger blackcap population migrating back to Germany after the breeding season has ended.

Step-by-step explanation:

By the inhabitants of Spain and the United Kingdom placing feeders out for the blackcaps, the birds in their nesting sites during the winter will have food to eat, meaning a bigger population of the Blackcaps when they return to their main home in Germany.

This best predicts the effect on the blackcap population if humans in the United Kingdom continue to place food in feeders during the winter.
