Suppose a landowner had five acres of land. How many indentured servants would he need to produce the maximum amount of tobacco (5,000 pounds)? (Anyone who paid for the ship's passage of a person from England to Virginia in the 17th century received 50 acres of free land, called a headright.) How many indentured servants would a landowner need to produce the maximum amount of tobacco (50,000 pounds) on 50 acres of land? How many acres of additional land would the landowner receive for this number of indentured servants (50 acres per person)?

- "runner b is moving at a slower rate."

- "the graphs shown are graphs of distance(km) against time(min).

the slopes of this graphs are are given by:

slope = (change in y)/(change in x)

= (change in distance)/(change in time)

this is the formula for finding the speed. so, the slope of these graphs represent the speed of the runner.

taking each division in the graph to represent 1 on both axis:

runner a ⇒ speed = (2-0)/(1-0)

= 2/1

= 2 km/min

runner b ⇒ speed = (3-0)/(3-0)

= 3/3

= 1 km/min

this shows that   runner b is moving at a slower rate."
