    The passage provides three math word problems: 1) An equilateral triangle is rotated 90 degrees and the area swept out can be expressed as πa+b/4. The problem is to compute 2a - b. 2) John runs at a constant rate of 5 feet per second while Jim accelerates at 0.5 * 2 feet per second. Given John has a 6 second head start, the problem is to calculate how long it will take Jim to catch up. 3) A student places stickers on lockers numbered 1 to 1000 based on certain patterns of every third, fifth, seventh and tenth locker. The problem is to determine how many lockers have at least three stickers.

    MUSTANG MATH TOURNAMENT 2020

    GALLOP ROUND 4

    10. An equilateral triangle with vertices (1 + √3, 0), (1, −1), and (1,1) is
    rotated about the origin 90°. If the area swept out by the figure can be
    𝜋𝑎+𝑏
    expressed as 4 where 𝑎 and 𝑏 real numbers, compute 2𝑎 − 𝑏.

    11. John and Jim are running a race. John is going at a constant rate, with
    equation 𝑑 = 5𝑡, where 𝑑 is distance in feet and 𝑡 is time in seconds.
    Meanwhile, Jim accelerates, and can map his time to distance as 𝑑 =
    0.5 ∗ 2𝑡 . If John starts 6 seconds before Jim, how long, to the nearest
    second, will it take Jim to catch up?

    12. A bored high schooler with an abundance of stickers (and time) decides
    to show their generosity by leaving stickers on various students’ lockers,
    which are numbered from 1 to 1000. They place a sticker on every third
    locker, then go back and place one on every fifth locker, then on every
    seventh locker, and finally, on every tenth locker. How many lockers
    have at least three stickers on them?
