Find Rumi and Noam's height after 5 minutes. Rumi: 50 feet : Noam: 50 feet Where do the lines intersect? •》 The lines intersect at the point

1 answer

To determine where the lines representing Rumi and Noam's height intersect after 5 minutes, we'll first interpret the information given.

  1. Initial Heights:

    • Rumi: 50 feet
    • Noam: 50 feet
  2. Change in Height: The problem doesn't mention any change in height for either person over time, so we will assume they maintain a constant height of 50 feet throughout the 5 minutes.

Since both Rumi and Noam are at a constant height of 50 feet at all times:

  • The line representing Rumi's height is a horizontal line at y = 50.
  • The line representing Noam's height is also a horizontal line at y = 50.

Intersecting Points:

Given that both lines are at a height of 50 feet, they intersect at every point along that horizontal line.

Conclusion:

The lines intersect at the point (any x, 50) since they are both at a height of 50 feet. For the purpose of your question, you can state:

The lines intersect at the point (x, 50) for any x-coordinate, as both heights are constant at 50 feet.
