The coordinate of c is 2

On a number line 'a' is at 11

and , 'b' is at -4

To find the coordinate of c

Now, According to the the question:

'a' and 'b' are -4 -11 = -15 units apart.

'ac' = 3/5 .'ab'

'ac'= 3/5 . (-15)

'ac' = -9

Now, Coordinate of 'c'

= 11 -9

= 2

Hence, The coordinate of c is 2

Sarah walks to school, 1.5 miles in 30 minutes. what is the snswer to this

nevsk [136]

Answer: 3 mi/h

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we have to find the speed $V$ at which Sarah walks to school, knowing the distance $d$ she has walked and the time $t$ she expends.

So, in this case we can use the following equation:

$V=\frac{d}{t}$

Where:

$d=1.5 mi$

$t=30 min \frac{1 h}{60 min}=0.5 h$

Solving:

$V=\frac{1.5 mi}{0.5 h}$

$V=3 mi/h$ This is Sarah's speed
