Danika Mccormick · Answer 1

d < 3120 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed by which i reach school from home = 260 ft per minute

Time taken by me to reach school = 12 min.

Distance from home to school = Speed * time

= 260*12

= 3120 feet

My friend lives closer to school than me.

If d is the distance of my friend's home to school then the inequality will be

d < 3120 ft

Therefore, the answer is d < 3120 ft

Walter Strong · Answer 2

d < 3120 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

the distant you walk is 12 * = 260 = 3120 ft. Your friend lives closer than you, meaning that distant is less than 3120
