Answer:
a) 231 yards
b) 55.2 yards
c) 0 yards to 260 yards
d) Infinite values
Explanation:
This situation can be described as a horizontal line that begins at point (Meredith's house) and ends at point (Bus stop). Where is the varying distance from her house, which can be calculated in the following way:
x=Final Position - Initial Position
or
a) For the first case Meredith is at position and the bus stop at position . So the distance Meredith is from the bus stop is:
b) For the second case the initial position is and the final position . Hence:
c) If we take Meredith's initial position at her house and her final position at the bus stop , the value of varies from 0 yards to 260 yards.
d) As Meredith walks from her house to the bus stop, the variable assumes infinite values, since there are infinite position numbers from to
