A 5-mile race takes place along a straight course. The number line shows the distance, in miles, from start to finish. The race director would like to place a water station along the course such that the distance from the start to the water station and the water station to the finish line is in a 7:5 ratio. Where would the water station be located? Round to the nearest tenth of a mile, if necessary.
The water station will be placed about miles from the start.
