a ford truck enters a highway and travles uniform speed of 50 mph. half an hour later a jaguar enters the highway at the same junction and heads in the same direction at 55 mph. how long after the ford enters the highway does the jaguard catch up

5.5 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that the distance is given by:

d = v * t = 50 mph * 1/2 h = 25 miles

The relative speed is given by:

 vr = 55 mph - 50 mph = 5 mph

Now the time required to reach

 would come being:

t = t '+ d / vr

we know that t '= 1/2 h, replacing:

t = 1/2 h + 25 mi / 5 mph

t = 1/2 h + 5 h

t = 5.5 h

Therefore, the required time is 5.5 hours.

answer: 80,000

step-by-step explanation:

the population doubles every day.

10,000*2=20,000 day 4

20,000*2=40,000 day 5

40,000*2=80,000 day 6
