Acheetah spots a gazelle 300 meters away. the cheetah begins to chase the gazelle at a rate of 18 meters per second at the same time the gazelle begins to run away at a rate of 16 meters per second. what would the equation be that represents the time, t, for the cheetah to reach the gazelle?

it will take 2 minute 30 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Cheeta DATA:

rate = 18 m/s ; time = t seconds ; distance = rt = 18t meters

Gazelle DATA:

rate = 16 m/s ; time = t seconds ; distance = rt = 16t meters

Equation:

gazelle +300 meters = cheetah

16t + 300 = 18t

2t = 300

t = 150 seconds (time for the cheetah to catch the gazelle)

well if he bought them at 5 cedis each sold them at 7 cedis each then he would make a profit of 2 cedis of each book. if in total he made 150 cedis profit that means he sold 75 books. he lost 12 books at the start so that means he originally bought a total of 82 books.
