Francesca's path, represented by the line F(m), starts at coordinates (0,10) and ends at (16,22), while Mercedes' path, M(m), starts at (0,0) and reaches (14,28), with both paths intersecting at the point (8,16). Given that they meet at 8,16, it can be deduced that they will arrive at the store simultaneously, taking the same amount of time to reach that intersection point along their respective paths.
Francesca is meeting Mercedes at a store. The line labeled F(m) shows the path Francesca will take, and the line labeled M(m) represents the path of Mercedes. How long will it take for them to arrive at the store?
The F(m) line starts at 0,10, and slowly moves upward, going to the end of the chart at 16,22. The M(m) line is at 0,0, and quickly moves upward, going to the end of the chart at 14,28. They intersect at 8,16.
