Question 1

Consider this graph.

(1 point)
Determine the speed (unit rate) for each student participating in the walk. Round the value to the hundredths place. Remember to include the zero on the left side of the decimal.

Millie walks at a speed of
miles per minute.

Sam walks at a speed of
miles per minute.

Zola walks at a speed of
miles per minute.

To determine the speed (unit rate) for each student participating in the walk, we would typically need information such as the distance each student walked and the time it took them to cover that distance. Since I cannot see the graph you mentioned, I cannot calculate their speeds directly.

However, you can follow this process to find each student's speed (unit rate):

  1. Identify the distance each student walked.
  2. Identify the time taken for each student.
  3. Calculate the speed for each student using the formula: \[ \text{Speed} = \frac{\text{Distance}}{\text{Time}} \]
  4. Round the result to the hundredths place. Make sure to include leading zeroes.

Example:

  • If Millie walked 100 meters in 5 minutes, her speed would be: \[ \text{Speed} = \frac{100 \text{ meters}}{5 \text{ minutes}} = 20 \text{ meters per minute} \]

If you provide the specific distances and times for each student, I can help calculate their speeds.

Question 2:

Once you have calculated the speeds for Millie, Sam, and Zola, compare their speeds:

  • The one with the highest speed walks the fastest.
  • The one with the lowest speed walks the slowest.
  • The fastest walker will arrive at the finish line first.

Provide the values for distance and time, and I can assist you further!
