Richard and gloria ran a 10-kilometer race. gloria gave richard a head start by letting him begin 2.2 kilometers in front of the start line. the distances of richard and gloria past the start line as the race progressed can be represented by linear functions and are shown in the table of values and graph below. whose time was faster, and by how much?

Ted and meg have each drawn a line on the scatter plot shown below: the graph shows numbers from 0 to 10 on x and y axes at increments of 1. dots are made at the ordered pairs 1, 8 and 2, 7.5 and 3, 6 and 4, 5.5 and 4.5, 4.8 and 5, 4 and 6, 3.5 and 7, 3 and 8, 1.9 and 9, 1.2 and 10, 0. a straight line labeled line p joins the ordered pairs 0, 8.5 and 10.1, 0. a straight line labeled line r joins the ordered pairs 0, 8.5 and 7.8, 0. which line best represents the line of best fit? line p, because it is closest to most data points line p, because it shows a positive association line r, because it is closest to most data points line r, because it shows a negative association
