Imagine that a customer calls for assistance during a vacation she is taking in new york city. she is currently at battery park
and needs to arrive at yankee stadium by 4: 00pm for the yankees’ friday night baseball game. she is planning to meet a friend at the metro stop on 161 e street. use google maps to determine the answer to the following question. 1. at what time is the latest subway train she could take to make it to the stadium on time?
a. 3: 02 p. m.
b. 2: 50 p. m.
c. 3: 12 p. m.
d. 3: 22 p. m.
The 4 train from battery park to e 161st is 35 minutes. However, it takes a few minutes to walk from the 161st stop to the stadium, so you would need to budget in extra time (so 3:22 would be too late even though it gets in before 4:00 pm). The best train would be the 3:12 because it would get in at 3:47, giving you plenty of time to walk from the station to the stadium.
