the equilibrium point, is when Demand = Supply, namely, when the amount of "Q"uantity demanded by customers is the same as the Quantity supplied by vendors.
That occurs when both of these equations are equal to each other.
let's do away with the denominators, by multiplying both sides by the LCD of all fractions, in this case, 12.

Answer:
It will take 6/13 hours to walk one mile
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we want to calculate the number of hours it take to walk one mile
From the question, 1 1/2 miles take 3 1/4 hours
the number of hours it will take to walk 1 mile will be;
1 1/2 divided by 3 1/4
= 3/2 divided by 13/4
= 3/2 * 4/13 = 6/13 hours
Katja would be the straight line and joels line would show sections that stop going up it would intersect at some point because katja is constantly moving while joel takes breaks in-between
Hope this helps!! :))
