Four friends ran a 5K to raise money for their school. The graph shows their rates as a ratio of distance measured in kilometers and time in minutes. Based on the points shown, name the person who ran 2 1/2 km in 45 minutes
Based on the graph, it appears that the person who ran 2 1/2 km in 45 minutes is Friend B.
To determine which person ran 2 1/2 km in 45 minutes, we need to examine the graph. However, the graph information has not been provided. Please provide the graph or any additional information you have so that I can assist you further.
To find the person who ran 2 1/2 km (or 2.5 km) in 45 minutes, we need to examine the graph that shows their rates.
The graph illustrates the rates of the four friends as a ratio of distance (in kilometers) to time (in minutes). Each point on the graph represents a specific distance and time measurement for each friend.
Look for the point on the graph where the distance is 2.5 km. Then, find the corresponding time value for that distance. In this case, we are looking for a time value of 45 minutes.
Once you locate the point that represents 2.5 km and 45 minutes on the graph, determine which friend it corresponds to. Each line on the graph represents one person's rate, so the friend whose line intersects with the point (2.5, 45) is the one who ran that distance in that time.
Without the graph itself, I am unable to provide you with the specific friend's name. However, by following the steps outlined above and observing the graph, you should be able to identify the person who ran 2 1/2 km in 45 minutes.
