Question

$A brand-new engineering hire is late for her first product development team meeting. She gets out of her car and starts running 8 mph. It is exactly 7:58 a.m., and the meeting starts at exactly 8:00 a.m. Her meeting is 510 yd away. Will she make it on time to the meeting? If so, with how much time to spare? If not, how late will she be? (Express your answer using two significant figures. Enter a negative value if the person will be late and a positive value if she will come earlier.) \[ t = \Box \, \text{s} \]$
