Answer:

OK, without telling the answer yet, I will teach you how to find this. Distance on the number line will always be positive. If you are measuring a line, the distance from two points will always be positive because you cannot have a negative distance. Take each number and find its absolute value. |-61.5|=61.5 and |-23.4|=23.4

Take the larger value and subtract the smaller value to find the distance, and the leftover positive is your answer, which is 38.1

Steve can jog 14 miles in 2 hours. At this rate, how many miles can he jog in 1/4 hour?
Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

1  3/4 miles in 1/4 hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Write and solve an equation of ratios:

 x           (1/4) hr

--------- = ------------

14 mi       2 hr

Cross multiplying, we get 2x = (1/4)(14), or

                                              x = (1/4)(7), or x = 7/4

Steve can jog 7/4 miles in 1/4 hour.  That's 1  3/4 miles in 1/4 hour.
