The landscaper plants the first flower at 0. Place points on the number line to show where the landscaper should place the other flowers.

Answer 1

(0, 1/3, 2/3, 1, 1 1/3, 1 2/3, 2)

Explanation:

Given :. Length of row = yards

Spacing = 1/3 yard

Startibg point = 0

0 ;

0+1/3 = 1/3

1/3 + 1/3 = 2/3

2/3 + 1/3 = 2/3 = 1

1 + 1/3 = 1 1/3

1 1/3 + 1/3 = 1 2/3

1 2/3 + 1/3

(0, 1/3, 2/3, 1, 1 1/3, 1 2/3, 2)
