1. carrie and her friend allison are training for a running race. carrie ran 10 mi in 85 min. allison ran 15 mi in 135 min. are the statements true or false? explain why they are true or false. show your work using numbers and words.
(a) allison’s minutes-per-mile pace was faster than carrie minutes-per-mile pace. true or false: how do you know:
(b) carrie ran 9 mph.
true or false:
how do you know:

(c) allison ran 12 mi in 108 min.
true or false:
how do you know:

(d) carrie’s total time was 4 min slower than allison’s total time after they ran 9 mi.
true or false:
how do you know:

a)False

b)False

c)True

d)False

Step-by-step explanation:

a. False

Let us first compute the minutes-per-mile of each:

Carrie: 10mi in 85 mins

So for every mile it takes Carrie 8.5 minutes

Allison: 15mi in 135mins

So for every mile it takes Allison 9 minutes

As you can see, it Allison pace was slower because it takes her a longer time to complete 1 mile.

b. False

Let us compute this time miles per hour, before we do that though, you need to remember that the units are in minutes, so we need to convert them into hours (1 hour = 60 minutes):

Carrie: 10 miles in 85 minutes

x

We use that to get our miles per hour (mph):

As you can see Carrie's rate is actually 7.04 mi/hr and NOT 9 mi/hr.

c. True

Allison: 15 miles in 135 mins

The question is whether:

To determine if two fractions are proportional, all you need to do is cross multiply and see if the products are equal:

Because they are equal, then it is TRUE.

We can also solve it by solving the rate of each.

d. False

To solve this, just take the minutes per mile of each to see how long each took to reach 9 miles. You can do this by multiplying the minutes per mile of each and multiplying it to 9 miles.

Carrie: 8.5 min/mi

Allison: 9 min/mi

With that alone you can already deduce that Carrie is not SLOWER. But if you need to show the solution, we can move on. We multiply both rates by 9 miles, so we can see how long it took each.

Carrie:

x

Allison:

x

The question is whether if Carrie is slower than Allison, so you find the difference (subtract). And there you can see, that the difference is 4.5 mins.

However, since Carrie has the lower value, it means that she was actually faster.

glide reflection.

its mainly because the pattern will be infinite and will never end. it will look like a gilder or like a filpbook when set to motion.

-2 is the right
