Question

Jose is at rest in System S' that has a velocity u = +0.46c relative to system S, where Cisco is at rest.  The clocks of S and S' are synchronized at t = t' = 0 when the origins O and O' coincide. An event is observed in both systems. The event takes place at x = 574 m and at time = 1.70 μs, as measured by Cisco in S. What is the x'-coordinate of the event in meters, measured by Jose in S'? Please give your answer with no decimal places.
