10,5+1,05+1,05 =12,6

(210/6) - (10.5+1.05+1.05) = 35 - 12.6 = 22.4 / 2.5 = 8 min 57.3 sec

 

Mine is simpler and seems more correct:

X = (210-105)*10/60 = 17.5 (km)

Y = 105+45 = 150 (km/h)

t (min) = X/Y * 60 = 7 (min)

 
It's not like the traffic cop took 210 from the spot. Not enough acceleration time, anyway.

similarly 6.9999999996
 

I don't think the answer is important -

the mere fact that the BMW's 210 kilometres per hour is great.

But it's more of a challenge to get the idea

the idea that the pooch is also somewhere in that range.)


Nonsense - just a spammy advert for children

who don't know that the Russian car industry is 500 years

from the BMW by 500 years.

It doesn't matter. The main thing is that he managed to accelerate before overtaking Oka. The entire solution of the problem is from the moment of overtaking.
 
Mathemat:

2 minutes is a redundancy in the problem. And correct the answer, Alexei.

It's not redundant. The Oka did 3.49 kilometres in that time. Even if the Baja took off, it still needed to catch up, and it kept going.

What's the difference. The main thing is that he managed to accelerate before overtaking Oka. The whole solution to the problem is from the moment he overtook.
Yeah. Exactly.
 
sumkin75: It's not too much. The Oka did 3.49 kilometres in that time. Even if the Baja had taken off, it still needed to catch up, and it kept going.

It's amazing where the ability to solve school problems goes with age. At school you would have solved it for sure - and you wouldn't even have thought about whether he had time to speed it up or not.

I guess "experience is the son of hard errors" gradually deprives us of the ability to think as clearly and distinctly as at school.
