Question 5: In his brand-new Bugatti Veyron, Rafael travels 380 km/h from Pisa to Milan. He needs 45 minutes. There will be a line of traffic when he returns. He needs 1.5 hours to move through the 15 km-long traffic jam. Next, an 80 km stretch of slow traffic that travels at 40 km/hour follows. He can only travel through the final segment at an average speed of 190 km/hour due to how congested it is. How much time does Leonardo need to drive back?
- 4 hours
- 4,5 hours (Correct answer)
- 5 hours
- 3 hours
Correct answer: 4,5 hours
First, calculate the total distance: 380 km/h * (45/60) h = 285 km. For the return journey, sum the times for each segment: 1.5 hours for the traffic jam, (80 km / 40 km/h) = 2 hours for the slow traffic, and ((285 - 15 - 80) km / 190 km/h) = (190 km / 190 km/h) = 1 hour for the final segment. The total return time is 1.5 + 2 + 1 = 4.5 hours.
Question 6: Rafael spends ā¬3.40 on three notebooks to record his thoughts. He also purchases 3 rubbers and 6 pencils. Each pencil costs ā¬0.60. Each rubber costs ā¬0.50.

- ā¬ 16.20
- ā¬ 8.20
- ā¬ 15.00 (Correct answer)
- ā¬ 15.30
Correct answer: ā¬ 15.00
Explanation: <br> Solution: <br> Notebooks: 3 * ā¬ 3,40 = ā¬ 10,20 <br> Pencils together with rubbers: 3 * ā¬ 1,00 = ā¬ 3,00 <br> Pencils separately: 3 * ā¬ 0,60 = ā¬ 1,80 <br> Total: ā¬ 10,20 + ā¬ 3,00 + ā¬ 1,80 = ā¬ 15,00
