Question: Reference frame S' passes reference frame S with a certain velocity as in Figure. Events 1 and 2 are to have a certain spatial separation

Reference frame S' passes reference frame S with a certain velocity as in Figure. Events 1 and 2 are to have a certain spatial separation Δx' according to the S' observer. However, their temporal separation Δ t' according to that observer has not been set. Figure gives their spatial separation Δx according to the S observer as a function of Δ t' for a range of A t' values. The vertical axis scale is set by Δ xa = 10.0 m. What is Δx'?
