Problem 1

What is the value of $9901\cdot101-99\cdot10101?$

$\textbf{(A)}~2\qquad\textbf{(B)}~20\qquad\textbf{(C)}~200\qquad\textbf{(D)}~202\qquad\textbf{(E)}~2020$

Solution

Problem 2

A model used to estimate the time it will take to hike to the top of the mountain on a trail is of the form $T=aL+bG,$ where $a$ and $b$ are constants, $T$ is the time in minutes, $L$ is the length of the trail in miles, and $G$ is the altitude gain in feet. The model estimates that it will take $69$ minutes to hike to the top if a trail is $1.5$ miles long and ascends $800$ feet, as well as if a trail is $1.2$ miles long and ascends $1100$ feet. How many minutes does the model estimates it will take to hike to the top if the trail is $4.2$ miles long and ascends $4000$ feet?

$\textbf{(A) }240\qquad\textbf{(B) }246\qquad\textbf{(C) }252\qquad\textbf{(D) }258\qquad\textbf{(E) }264$
