Answer:
5 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
We know these are similar triangles, so we can use ratios of side lengths
x/40 = 4/32
Using cross products
32x = 4*40
32x = 160
Divide each side by 32
32x/32 = 160/32
x =5
At D point in the bottom then up and to the right upper corner to Letter B
This one is best done by elimination:
We need to start 4 meters away, so B is clearly wrong.
We first move towards Mr. Wilson (i.e. distance is decreasing) so A is wrong.
Our speed is faster on the way back, so the two sloped section must have differing slopes, so D is wrong.
(D also doesn't start at 4, it's wrong for two reasons.)
Only C is left.
We can check each part to make sure. First we start at 4m, then move away, then stay still (zero slope) for three seconds, then move back faster (higher slope). All parts check out ok.
