What we need to do first, is to write the equation of the line through points A and B.
the slope of the line through A(3, 7) and B(-4, 9) is

the equation of the line is :

C(a, 1) is on this line so it must satisfy the equation:
Hello!
First of all, we can subtract the stretching time. This gives us 20. If we divide by the four laps we get 5 minutes per lap.
Now, one lap is 400 meters (most tracks are), which is equal to 15,748.03 inches. This means it takes her five minutes to walk 15,748.03 inches. This is also equal to 300 seconds, so it takes her 300 minutes per 15,748.03 inches.
But if we round our big inches number to the nearest ten thousandth, we get 16,000, so in a simpler form her pace is 300/16,000. But we need to find in per second. Therefore we will divide by 300 to find how many inches she walks per second. This means she walks about 53.33 inches per second.
I hope this helps!
I'm not 100% sure, but I think the answer is 14 hours
I’m not so sure about this one but my guess would be maybe C
