one date

chapter one

You arrive home late at your New York city apartment. You rush inside and up the stairs because it's freezing outside, snow just started to fall. Once you get inside you place down your keys and your bag and sit on the warm couch. You see that your favorite radio is on and doing radio games so you join in.

"Alright people this is 18.77 central tuning in. Now today we have a fun game for all you single ladies out tonight. You will be able to go on a dating show with 7 handsome men but, you have to answer this one question, two large and 1 small pumps can fill a swimming pool in 4 hours. One large and 3 small pumps can also fill the same swimming pool in 4 hours. How many hours will it take 4 large and 4 small pumps to fill the swimming pool. We assume that all large pumps are similar and all small pumps are also similar."

"Okay..easy" you say to yourself because you were at the top of your class with all honors courses. You start thinking out loud, "Find all sides of a right triangle whose perimeter is equal to 60 cm and its area is equal to 150 square cm. A circle of center (-3 , -2) passes through the points (0 , -6) and (a , 0). The equation of the tangent at ( 0 , 2) to the circle with equation so,

(x + 2)2 + (y + 1)2= 13!" You call up the number as fast as you can.

"Hello, this is Jisoo from 18.77 central. Are you calling to answer the question?"

"Yes this is y/n the answer is (x + 2)2 + (y + 1)2 = 13."

"Ooo lemme check, ahhh sorry you got it wrong but, don't worry we'll have more games tomorrow."

"Oh...okay bye" you hung up but, you weren't upset it's just a silly game. You wash up and head to bed. As you drifted your eyes to sleep you couldn't stop thinking about the show. What would happen? What did they look like? What would've happened?

In the morning when you wake up you rub your eyes and check your phone and you have a voicemail.

"Hey y/n this is Jisoo from 18.77 central. I'd just like to let you know that you were right yesterday and you will be on the dating show. We'll fly you in on Wednesday next week and good luck!"
