Chapter one of The Great Gatsby introduces the narrator, Nick Carraway, and establishes the context and setting of the novel. Nick begins by explaining his own situation. He has moved from the Midwest to West Egg, a town on Long Island, NY. The novel is set in the years following WWI, and begins in 1922. Nick served in the army in WWI, and now that he is home has decided to move east and try to become a bond trader on Wall Street. Nick is a graduate of Yale, and grew up in a wealthy family. He is what is considered "old rich," and feels he is superior to those who have recently earned great fortunes, the "new rich."
Hope this helps :)

Anna35 [415]

The statement, which correctly describes the motion of the buses is this: THE AVERAGE SPEED OF THE BUSES IS EQUAL.

Speed is defined as the distance traveled per unit time; it measures the rate of moving of an object. It is a scalar quantity, that is, it has only magnitude and no specific direction and it is measured in meter per second. A high speed value implies that an object is moving very fast while a low value indicates that the object is moving slowly. For the two buses given in the question, they both moved the same distance in the same amount of time.
