Two buses, X and Y, start their journey at the same time on a 950 km route.
Bus X gives a 1-hour break after every 3 hours' drive. So, it is at rest at the 4th, 8th, 12th, 16th, 20th,
... hours.
Bus Y gives a 1-hour break after every 4 hours' drive. So, it is at rest at the 5th, 10th, 15th, 20th,
25th,... hours.
You are given the speeds of the two buses Vx and Vy as 80 and 75, respectively.
Write a program that does the following:
•
Evaluate and display at the end of every hour the distance traveled by each bus.
When either one of the buses reach their destination, the evaluations terminate.
Depending on whether X or Y or both reach their destination in the last hour, display one
of the following messages before stopping (where n is the number of hours):
o
"Within hour n, bus X reaches its destination."
"Within hour n, bus Y reaches its destination."
o "Within hour n, both buses reach their destinations."
Sample screen output:
After hour 1, X is at 80 km, Y is at 75 km.
After hour 2, X…
Four individuals wish to traverse an unstable bridge; they all start on the same side. You have 17 minutes to get everyone to the opposite side. Night has fallen, and they have only one torch. Two individuals may cross the bridge at once at most. Any crossing party, whether one or two individuals, must carry a torch. The torch must be carried back and forth; it cannot, for instance, be hurled. Person 1 crosses the bridge in one minute, person 2 in two minutes, person 3 in five minutes, and person 4 in ten minutes. A dyad must trek together at the slower individual's cadence. Create the algorithm specification that solves the problem.
b.) Write an integer programming formulation to find the second-shortest path from 1 to 8 in this network. (Hint: if the shortest path is not available, the second-shortest path becomes the shortest path.)

- Island Nation is a country that prides itself in its organization. It consists of 100 equal square districts, laid out in a perfect 10x10 grid, with an island in the center of each of the 100 districts. The government of Island Nation wants to better connect the islands, building bridges in a straight line directly from one island to another. Consider five different islands. Suppose bridges are built between each possible pair of islands within these five. Prove that at least one of these bridges will be built directly over some island in the very middle of its path. Note that this "midpoint island" does not have to be one of the five islands that are having bridges built. (Hint: think of the "coordinates" of each of the islands as (r, y), where r and y are integers between 0 and 9.) 4.arrow_forwardنقطتان )2( The correct choice to draw the Arc between points (120,120) and (180,120) is 50,220 120,220 180,220 250,220 50,190 150,200 250,190 60,170 240,170 50,150 150,140 250,150 50,120 120,120 180, 120 250,120 Draw -> Arc -> 3 Points (120,120) -> -> (180,120) -> (150,140) Draw -> Arc -> 3 Points -> (120,120) -> (150,120) -> (180,120) Draw -> Arc -> 3 Points -> (180,120) -> (120,120) -> (150,140) -> Arc -> 3 Points -> (120,120) -> (150,140) -> (180,120) Draw Draw -> Arc -> 3 Points -> (180,120) -> (150,120) -> (120,120)arrow_forward'roof: given that f(0) exists, we must show that limx-o f(x)-f(0), or equivalently nat lim f(0+h)+f(0)(if h#0, then.,. ......(Continue h.w)arrow_forward
