A man cycling along the road noticed that every 12 minutes a bus overtakes him and every 4 minutes he meets an oncoming bus. If all buses and the cyclist move at a constant speed, what is the time interval between consecutive buses

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the speed of cyclist be C and bus be B.

Using the concept of relative speed:-

For incoming bus,speed = B + C

For overtaking bus,speed = B - C

Now,distance travelled b/w 2 incoming bus = (B + C)*4

Now,distance travelled b/w 2 overtaking bus = (B - C)*12

so,

(B + C)*4 = (B - C)*12

or, B=2C

Hence,distance b/w two buses in same direction,d=4*(3/2)B=6 B

Therefore, time gap=d/B=6 minutes

to determine the unit cost your would divide the total cost by the number sold.

7 bagels for $4.41       $4.41/7 = $.63 each at fresh side

5 bagels for $3.60         $3.60/5 = $.72 each at value mart

the answer is:

the correct option:

b.

to solve the problem, we need to remember how to operate to simplify exponential expressions using the logarithms.

we are given the equation:

then, using placing logarith with base 7 on both sides of the equation, we have:

so, rounding the obtained result to two decimal places (nearest hundreth), we have:

hence, we have that the correct option:

b.

have a nice day!
