A line graph is titled as Runner A, Average Miles per Minute. The x-axis is labeled Minutes ranging from 0 to 36 in increments of 6. The y-axis is labeled Miles ranging from 0 to 4 in increments of 1. A solid line joins four plotted points. The coordinates of the plotted points are as follows: left parenthesis 0 comma 0 right parenthesis, left parenthesis 12 comma 1 right parenthesis, left parenthesis 24 comma 2 right parenthesis, and left parenthesis 36 comma 3 right parenthesis.

Runner A and Runner B tracked their mileage. Runner A’s average miles per minute are displayed in the graph, and Runner B’s average miles per minute are displayed in the table. Which runner has the fastest time, and what are their average miles per minute?(1 point)
Runner A has the fastest time at 10 average miles per minute.
Runner A has the fastest time at 10 average miles per minute.
Runner B has the fastest time at 10 average miles per minute.
Runner B has the fastest time at 10 average miles per minute.
Runner B has the fastest time at 12 average miles per minute.
Runner B has the fastest time at 12 average miles per minute.
Runner A has the fastest time at 12 average miles per minute.
Runner A has the fastest time at 12 average miles per minute.
We cannot compare the average mileage per minute of Runner A and Runner B directly because they have different data representations. The graph only shows Runner A's average miles per minute at different times, while the table shows Runner B's average miles per minute for different durations. Therefore, we cannot determine which runner has the fastest time based on the information given.
Runner A has the fastest time at 12 average miles per minute.
To determine which runner has the fastest time and their average miles per minute, we need to compare the data given for Runner A and Runner B.
For Runner A, we have a line graph with plotted points at (0,0), (12,1), (24,2), and (36,3). The x-axis represents minutes and the y-axis represents miles. The graph shows that Runner A's average speed increases consistently over time.
For Runner B, we have a table that displays the average miles per minute for specific minutes. The table shows that Runner B's average miles per minute are 20 at 2 minutes, 30 at 3 minutes, and 40 at 4 minutes.
To determine the faster runner, we need to compare the average miles per minute values for both runners at the same time interval. Looking at the given data, there is no matching time interval for Runner A and Runner B. Therefore, we cannot directly compare their average miles per minute.
Hence, we cannot determine which runner has the fastest time and their respective average miles per minute based on the given information.
