Question

Assume that you are a crime investigator handling a snatch case that a woman, after closing her Yammy restaurant was approached, and snatched her purse, by a very tall young (seemingly in his 20s) man in front of the Yammy restaurant located on Johnson Avenue at around 2 a.m. on February 1st, 2023. You could narrow down the range of the suspects within three individuals because two CCTVs capturing the Johnson Avenue scenes could record the three individuals passing on the Johnson Avenue between midnight and 3 a.m. of the incident day. However, the victim was unable to identify the real culprit among the three, and no direct evidence was found to link the snatch theft to the real culprit, aside from the CCTV recording, which only shows the three individuals walking on Johnson Avenue at the time, without capturing the actual robbery scene. Noticeably, one of the three suspects has been wanted by the police for a more serious crime of robbery. Therefore, the suspect is currently under custody, while the two other suspects were released with further future interrogation opportunities.

00:01 In this problem, the walking speed of each man is considered to be equivalent to b feet per second while the driving speed of each man is considered to be equivalent to w feet per second.

00:33 There are three people.

00:36 First let us consider alex.

00:38 Alex left for work around 9 .18 pm.

00:47 So we are given that he left for work around 9 .18 pm.

00:52 He walked to a distance.

00:54 So he walked to a distance of 1000 feet to the car.

01:03 So he walked a distance to his car for approximately 1000 feet while he drove approximately a distance equivalent to 16 miles.

01:15 So he drove 16 miles to his, he reached around 9 .14 pm.

01:31 So we need to create this entire thing in an equation.

01:36 There is another thing which is told to us that the time taken is between 9 .18 pm to 9 .14 pm.

01:49 So we need to calculate for this time what will be the equation.

01:53 So first let us convert 16 miles into feet.

01:58 Now we know that 1 mile is equivalent to 5280 feet.

02:06 So 16 miles in order to be converted to feet we will multiply 16 with 5280.

02:16 So the value that we obtain is 84480 feet.

02:24 Now we can say that time taken by alex to reach his car can be given by the ratio or distance upon speed which is 1000 feet.

02:54 Now time taken by alex to reach his phone we could give this as equal to t2 is equivalent to 84480 divided by w.

03:18 Now we could say that the total time taken by alex to reach home at work location is equivalent to 22 minutes.

03:39 Let us convert this 22 minutes into seconds.

03:44 We have to multiply it with 16.

03:47 Hence we obtain 1320 seconds.

03:51 Therefore we could write t1 plus t2 is equivalent to 1320...
