To answer this item, we let x be the time in which Tyler and Sophia will be able to cover the same distance along the circular track. Since Sophia runs faster, she will be able to finish the track and y meters more while Tyler will be able to finish y meters only.
5(x) = 400 + y
4(x) = y
The values of x and y are 400 and 1600. Thus, it will take 400 seconds for then to meet again.
The correct answer would be (-24). When multiplying with negative integers, negative times negative is positive, however, the final answer, in this case, is negative because you are then multiplying a positive and a negative:
(-2)(-3)=6
6(-4)=(-24)
I'm guessing Jamar's mistake was he multiplied all of them thinking his answer would be a positive integer: 24.
