Find the duration
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Time : 9:00am to 10:15am
Duration: 1hour 15 mins or 1.25hours

Find difference in distance travelled between the two cyclists.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Difference in speed = 6km/h
1 hour = 6 km
1.25 hours = 7.5km
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Find the distance the cyclist traveled
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
42.5 - 7.5 = 35km
35km ÷ 2 = 17.5km
The slower cyclist traveled 17.5 km in the 1.25 hours
17.5 + 7.5 = 25 km
The faster cyclist traveled 25km in the 1.25 hours
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Find the speed of the slower cyclist
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1.25 hour = 17.5 km
1 hour = 17.25 ÷ 1.25
1 hour = 14km
The cyclist was traveling at 14km/h
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Find the speed of the faster cyclist
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1.25 hour = 25km
1 hour = 25 ÷ 1.25
1hour = 20 km
The cyclist was traveling at 20km/hour
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Answer: The speed were 14km/h and 20 km/h

Answer:
0.14
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the poisson probability relation :
P(x = x) = (λ^x * e^-λ) ÷ x!
From the question ; mean, λ = 5 ; x = 3
Hence,
P(x = 3) = (5^3 * e^-5) ÷ 3!
P(x = 3) = (125 * 0.0067379) / 6
P(x = 3) = 0.8422375 / 6
P(x = 3) = 0.140
Answer:
Interest in 3 years = $456.52
Step-by-step explanation:
As we know the the formula of compound interest
Total amount = 
Here n = number of times amount is compounded
r = rate of interest
t = period
Here A = $2500
r = 0.0575
n = 1 (compounded annually)
t = 3 years
Therefore amount after 3 years
P =2500(1.0575)³
= 2500×1.18
= $2956.52
We have to calculate the interest then
Interest = $2956.52-$2500 = $456.52
So after 3 years interest gained = $456.52
