Xavier start 5 feet away from the motion detector. He then walks away from the detector at a rate of 0.5 ft./s for four seconds. He remains still for two seconds, and then walks towards the motion detector at a rate of -2 ft./s for three seconds. How far in feet Xavier from the motion detector when he finishes his walk?

1 ft away from the motion detector.

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate Xavier's distance we can assume that the motion detector would be represented as 0ft. Now we simply need to create the arithmetic expression for every step/action that Xavier performed. Finally, we would solve the expression to calculate Xavier's total distance from the motion detector.

5ft + (0.5ft * 4) + (-2ft * 3)

5ft + 2ft - 6ft

1ft

Finally, we can see that Xavier is 1 ft away from the motion detector.

they disappear if your absent from to long. i found out that the hard way.

brainliest lol i just need one more brainliest.
