Question 501008
"Through a combination of sight, sound, and smell a rabbit can detect a fox at 42 yards. When the rabbit detects the fox, it runs immediately straight to its hole. If the fox can run twice as fast as the rabbit, what is the maximum distance from its hole that a rabbit can safely venture? Assume that the rabbit escapes if they arrive at the hole at the same time."
------------
The fox is 42 yds from the rabbit.
For a tie, the fox runs 2x as far as the rabbit while gaining the 42 yds.
--> The rabbit is <= 42 yds from its hole, and the fox is 84 yds from the hole.
--> 42 yds max
