A Marathon is about 26 miles the graph shows how fast runner A ran The table shows how fast runner b ran which runner would win the race How did you know?
To determine which runner would win the race, we can compare the average speed of both runners over the distance of the marathon (26 miles).
From the graph, it can be seen that runner A ran at an average speed of 7.5 miles per hour.
From the table, it can be seen that runner B ran at an average speed of 6 miles per hour.
Since runner A ran at a faster average speed than runner B, runner A would win the race. This can be verified by calculating the time it would take for each runner to complete the 26-mile marathon:
- Runner A: 26 miles / 7.5 mph = 3.47 hours
- Runner B: 26 miles / 6 mph = 4.33 hours
Therefore, runner A would win the race because they would complete the marathon in less time than runner B.
