Jack and Diane are jogging back and forth along a one-mile path. They started out at 9:00 A.M. from opposite ends of the path. They passed each other in 10 minutes when Diane has gone 1/3 mile. What time will they first meet at one end of the path? You have to assume they keep jogging at the same speeds. Explain :

30 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

that problem description is imprecise.

I think what is meant here : they each keep jogging at their own same speed.

Diane's speed is 1/3 miles / 10 min.

Jack's speed is 2/3 miles / 10 min.

now, to bring this to regular miles/hour format, we need to find the factor between 10 minutes and an hour (60 minutes) and multiply numerator and denominator (top and bottom of the ratio) by it.

60/10 = 6.

so, we need to multiply both speeds up there by 6/6 to get the miles/hour speeds.

Diane : (1/3 × 6) / hour = 2 miles / hour

Jack : (2/3 × 6) / hour = 4 miles / hour

since Jack is running twice as fast as Diane, she will finish one length in the same time he finishes a round trip (back and forth).

Diane running 1 mile going 2 miles/hour takes her 30 minutes.

Jack running 2 miles (back and forth) going 4 miles/hour will take him also 30 minutes.

so, they will meet at his starting point after 30 minutes.

12.56 units

Step-by-step explanation: To find the circumference of a circle, start with the formula for the circumference of a circle which is shown below.

Notice that here, the radius of our circle is 2 units. So we can plug in 2 for r in the formula. So we have (2)(π)(2) which is equal to 4π units.

Remember that π is approximately equal to 22/7 or 3.14 so we can estimate the value of the circumference by plugging in 3.14 for π.

So we have (4)(3.14) which is equal to 12.56 units.

So the circumference of the circle is approximately equal to 12.56 units.
