Respuesta :
Representing the scenario using the distance equation, the number of seconds in which explosion would occur is 1.125 seconds.
Recall :
- Distance = Speed × time
- Let time = t
Firework A :
- D(t) = 360t - - - (1)
Firework B:
- D(t) = 280(0.25) + 280t
- D(t) = 70 + 280t - - - (2)
Equate (1) and (2) :
360t = 280t + 70
Collect like terms
360t - 280t = 70
80t = 70
t = 70/80
t = 0.875 seconds
0.875 + 0.25 = 1.125 seconds
Hence, the fireworks will explode after 1.125 seconds of launching Firework B.
