To determine the equation where y is the number of miles and x is the time in minutes for the day you ran the fastest for the week, we need to find the fastest time among the two running sessions.
From the given data:
- On Monday, you ran 4 miles in 40 minutes, which gives us a speed of 4 miles/40 minutes = 0.1 miles per minute.
- On Wednesday, you ran 2 miles in 16 minutes, which gives us a speed of 2 miles/16 minutes = 0.125 miles per minute.
Since 0.125 > 0.1, it means that you ran faster on Wednesday. Hence, the equation for the day you ran the fastest is:
C. Y=0.125x
You are training twice a week for a race. On Monday you go 4 miles in 40 minutes. Then on Wednesday you go 2 miles in 16 minutes write an equation where y is the number of miles and x is the time in minutes for the day you ran the fastest for the week
A. Y=10x
B.y = 8x
C. Y=0.125x
D. Y=0.1x
