Answer 1

In this scenario, when you brake and come to a stop after a child runs out into the street, you are primarily using the "execute" step of the IPDE process.

Here's the breakdown:

• Identify: You noticed the child running into the street.
• Predict: You anticipated the potential danger of hitting the child.
• Decide: You decided to brake to avoid the situation.
• Execute: You executed your decision by applying the brakes and coming to a stop.

So, the correct answer is execute.
