Question

Hello! Could you please help me with this problem? Thank you!

Answer 1

3rd option.

`56=-7\cdot-8`

Explanation:

They do not say that the rate is equal to -7 millimeters per second, which means that as time passes it moves away from the 0 position.

Since it is 8 seconds before it will go down the branch, it ensures that the bug will go down the branch, which means we can take the expression as follows:

`\begin{gathered} d=rt \\ \\ d=-7t \\ \\ \text{ in this case, t = -8} \\ \\ 56=-7\cdot-8 \end{gathered}`

So the correct answer is the 3rd option.
