Each morning, max walks to school. at 8:20, he passes a stoplight that is 2 blocks from home. he reaches the town library at 8:2
4. at this point, he is 3 blocks from school and half way there. if max walks at the same pace all the way to school, at what time does he arrive at school
If he is halfway there at 8:24 and it only took him 4 minutes to be another block away than it would take him 12 minutes for 3 blocks and adding 12 minutes to 8:24 would be 8:36.
This sentence is key: "At this point, he is 3 blocks from school and half way there" <span>since 3 blocks is halfway of the trip, that means the total distance is 6 blocks </span>
<span>from the stoplight to the library must be one block, and one block took him 4 minutes </span>
<span>therefore, therefore, the total trip takes 4 * 6 = 24 minutes, or 4 * 3 = 12 minutes from the library </span>
<span>8:24 + 12 = 8:36 </span>
<span>he arrives at school at 8:36 </span> <span>(and yes, make sure to sketch this out!)</span>
-10 and 8 multiply them to equal 80 but if there both negative it will be a positive 80 because if you multiply 2 negatives its postive hope this helps
