Answer:

6 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the information from the problem, if Emily continues to pick 3 strawberries per second while Sophia eats 5 strawberries per second, then the amount of strawberries will decrease at a rate of 2 strawberries per second. Therefore, we can find the answer by subtracting 2 from 20 until we get to 8. Since we subtract 2 six times, the answer is 6. Hope this makes sense!

Which statement is true for the vertical number line? A. -2.5 is located below -3.5 . B. -4.8 is located below 4.8 . C. 3.25 is
meriva

Answer:

B. -4.8 is located below 4.8 .  TRUE

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertical line is called the Y - AXIS.

Here also, the integers are expressed as same as the horizontal axis.

.... -5, -4, -3, -2, -1 , 0 , 1 2,3 4,5 ....

In vertical line, If we move above 0, the value INCREASES.

If we move Below 0, the value DECREASES.

Now, consider the given cases:

A. -2.5 is located below -3.5 .

Here, as -3 lies Below -2.

So, -2 > -3 ⇒  -2.5  >  -3.5

So, -2.5 is located ABOVE 3.5.

B. -4.8 is located below 4.8 .

Here, as -4 lies Below 4.

So, 4 > -4 ⇒  4.8  >  -4.8

So, -4.8 is located BELOW 4.8.

C. 3.25 is located above 3.75 .

Here, 3.75  > 3.25  

⇒  3.75  is located ABOVE 3.25.

D. -0.5 is located below -1.5 .

Here, as -1.5 lies Below 0.5.

So, -0.5 > -1.5

⇒  -0.5  is located ABOVE -1.5.

E. 0 is located below -0.87 .

Here, as  -0.87  lies Below 0.

So,0  > -0.87

⇒  0  is located ABOVE-0.87.
