Question

A line graph titled 5 Kilometer Run shows time in minutes on the x-axis and distance in kilometers on the y-axis. The graph shows the trend for four participants: Bella, Ruby, Greg, and Paul. The x-axis ranges from 0 to 60 in increments of 10. The y-axis ranges from 0 to 15 in increments of 2.5. A line labeled Bella starts at the origin and passes through plotted point left parenthesis 45 comma 3.5 right parenthesis. A line labeled Ruby starts at the origin and passes through plotted point left parenthesis 40 comma 2.5 right parenthesis. A line labeled Greg starts at the origin and passes through plotted point left parenthesis 45 comma 2.5 right parenthesis. A line labeled Paul starts at the origin and passes through plotted point left parenthesis 25 comma 1 right parenthesis.

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 212 km in 45 minutes.

Answer 1

Based on the information provided in the graph, the line corresponding to the participant who ran 2.5 km in 45 minutes is labeled Greg. Since none of the individuals completed 5 km in 45 minutes, the only individual with data provided at that specific time of 45 minutes is Greg, who covered 2.5 km. Therefore, "Running 212 km" may be a misinterpretation or typo, as that distance is not relevant to the context of the 5 km run being analyzed.

Given that the question may be inquiring about who reached their designated distance closest (though it seems to be incorrectly phrased), it is most accurate to respond with the names provided based on the available points.

The answer is: Greg
