A bug was running along a number line at a speed of 11 units per minute. It never changed its direction. If at 7:15 pm it was at point 100, where could it be at 7:20 pm?

Respuesta :

Answer:

155 Units

Step-by-step explanation:

Rate of Bug (given) = 11 units PER MINUTE

It never changed direction, so it was going in positive direction (assume).

In 7:15 pm (evening), it was at Point 100,

We want the point at which it was at 7:20 pm.

7:20pm - 7:15pm = 5 minutes

So, time passed 5 minutes. It's rate is 11 units PER MINUTE, so in 5 mins:

11 * 5 = 55 units

Assuming he is going in positive direction, the bug will be at:

100 + 55 = 155 Units

Answer:

155 units and 45 units

Step-by-step explanation:

7:20-7:15=5

5+50=55

100+55=155

100-45=55
