A coordinate graph is titled Runner A. It is labeled number of minutes on the x-axis ranging from 0 to 50 in increments of 10 and miles on the y-axis from 0 to 5 in increments of 1. Five points are plotted. The approximate coordinates of the plotted points are as follows: left parenthesis 0 comma 0 right parenthesis, left parenthesis 10 comma 1.2 right parenthesis, left parenthesis 20 comma 2.4 right parenthesis, left parenthesis 30 comma 3.5 right parenthesis, and left parenthesis 40 comma 4.7 right parenthesis.

Runner A would win because Runner B runs 1 mile every 10 minutes, but Runner A runs more than 1 mile every 10 minutes.
Runner A would win because Runner B runs 1 mile every 10 minutes, but Runner A runs more than 1 mile every 10 minutes.
Runner B would win because Runner B goes 5 miles and Runner A only goes between 4 and 5 miles.
Runner B would win because Runner B goes 5 miles and Runner A only goes between 4 and 5 miles.
Runner A would win because the slope is going up to the right on the graph.
Runner A would win because the slope is going up to the right on the graph.
Runner B would win because Runner B is faster than Runner A.
Runner B would win because Runner B is faster than Runner A.

Runner A would win because Runner B runs 1 mile every 10 minutes, but Runner A runs more than 1 mile every 10 minutes. This can be determined by comparing the rate at which each runner is able to run a mile. Since Runner A can run more than 1 mile in 10 minutes, they would be faster than Runner B who can only run 1 mile in 10 minutes.
