The tortoise and the hare are having a race. in this tale, the tortoise moves at 50 feet per hour while the hare moves at 250 feet per hour. the tortoise takes 8 hours longer than the hare to finish. what was the distance of the race?

For Tortoise Let

D = distance of the race

Rate = 50 ft per hour

T = Time

For Hare:

Rate= 250 per hour

Time =T-8

[ Given The tortoise takes 8 hours longer than the hare to finish

That is time taken by Hare is 8 hours less than Tortoise.]

The standard formula for all constant motion is

D = r * t

Distance covered by Hare and Tortoise is same so we have:

50 * t = 250 * (t-8)

Or 50*t=250 t -2000 ( using distributive rule)

Or,

50t-250t= 250t-250t -2000 ( subtract 250t both sides)

-200t = -2000

t= 10.(Dividing both sides by 200)

D= 50t

Substituting t=10 we have

D= 50(10)

D=500ft.

Distance of race is 500ft.

answer

a,b, and d

explanation

a reflection angle is more than

but less than;

an angle that measures

is a reflex angle.(true)

an angle that measures less than

is acute.(true)

provided we are considering angles greater or equal to zero.

an acute angle lies in the range.

an obtuse angle is less than 180° but more than 90°

an angle that measures 300° is obtuse (false)

an angle that measures 65° is an acute angle.(true)

1010: 3030

is it i think
