In a rectangular garden, a sneaky snake is slithering swiftly along the length. Simultaneously, a determined man begins his pursuit from one end of the breadth. The snake moves at a steady pace of 30 cm/hour, while the man walks twice as fast, covering 60 cm/hour.
The question is, how long will it take for the man to catch up to the snake?
Consider the garden's breadth as "B" and its length as "2B." The man and snake start moving at the same time.
To find the time "T" when the man catches the snake, we equate the distances they both cover.
Man's distance: 60T (60 cm/hour * T hours)
Snake's distance: 30T (30 cm/hour * T hours)
The man catches the snake when they meet at the same point, meaning the distance covered by both is equal.
Equation: 60T = 30T
Solving for "T":
60T - 30T = 0
30T = 0
T = 2
Thus, the man catches the snake after 2 hours.
The tickets for football matches at various stadiums in different cities have a mysterious pricing system based on the letters in the city name. Here are the prices for tickets in some cities:
Manchester Stadium: $1,400
Edinburgh Stadium: $1,100
Birmingham Stadium: $2,300
Liverpool Stadium: $1,500
Now, can you figure out the ticket price for someone visiting the London Stadium to watch a football match?
$1,600
Explanation:
To calculate the ticket price for someone at the London Stadium, we count the number of vowels and consonants in the city name and use the given formula.
City: London
Vowels: 2 (o, o)
Consonants: 4 (l, n, d, n)
Using the formula where vowels are worth $300 and consonants are worth $200, the ticket price for someone at the London Stadium would be:
(2 x $300 + 4 x $200) = $600 + $800 = $1,600
So, the ticket price for someone at the London Stadium is $1,600.

Late at night, the police find a man unconscious outside a store. He has a bleeding injury on his head, and there's a brick nearby. Detective Joe Friday, known for making quick decisions, is on the case.
Detective Friday tells the police to take the man into custody. What happened to lead to his arrest?
The man attempted to rob the store by hurling a brick toward the bulletproof window. However, his plan backfired when the brick rebounded and struck him, causing his injury and rendering him unconscious. Upon arriving at the scene and piecing together the evidence, Inspector Clouseau quickly discerned the failed heist and subsequently decided to take the man into custody for his attempted robbery.
9 years ago I was 9 years old. 9 years later, how old am I?
27 Years
Age at present = Age 9 years ago + 9 years
Age at present = 9 + 9
Age at present = 18 years old
So, your current age is 18 years old.
And 9 years later from the present, your age would be:
Age after 9 years = Age at present + 9 years
Age after 9 years = 18 + 9
Age after 9 years = 27 years old
Therefore, you will be 27 years old 9 years from now.
