A box has 14 candies in it: 9 are peppermint, 3 are caramel, and 2 are taffy. (Each candy falls into only one of these categories.) Bob wants to select two candies to eat for dessert. The first candy will be selected at random, and then the second candy will be selected at random from the remaining candies. What is the probability that the first candy selected is peppermint and the second candy is caramelt Do not round your intermediate computations. Round your final answer to three decimal places. Ú x

A tortoise and hare are competing in a 400-meter race. The arrogant hare gives the tortoise a 220-meter head start. When the start gun is fired, the hare begins running at a constant speed of 3.5 meters per second and the tortoise begins crawling at constant speed of 1.5 meters per second. Take out a piece of paper and read the above problem context again. You will prepare your written work and solutions on your own paper and upload it and the end of this question. Complete the problem solving process by: i. reading and re-reading the problem to identify the quantities in the situation; ii. making a drawing to represent the relevant quantities in the situation; iii. and defining the variable t to represent the number of seconds since the start of the race. a. Define a function f to determine the distance of the tortoise from the finish line in terms of the number of seconds, t, since the start of the race.
