Question

The top missing part of the screenshot says : Every year, a dog sled race is held in Alaska and is approximately 1,150 miles in distance. Information about the top three racers is listed below.

Answer 1

-The equation that represents the approximate distance Aaron's dog sled team travels over time is Y = 5.32X.

-The equation that represents the approximate distance Dallas' dog sled team travels over time is Y = 5.48X.

-The equation that represents the approximate distance Mitch's dog sled team travels over time is Y = 5.42X.

Explanation:

Given that every year, a dog sled race is held in Alaska and is approximately 1,150 miles in distance, based on the listed information, the speed rate of every racer is:

Aaron = 575 miles in 4 days and 12 hours = 575 miles in 108 hours = 5.32 mph

Dallas = 1,150 miles in 8 days and 18 hours = 1,150 miles in 210 hours = 5.476 mph

Mitch = 287.5 miles in 2 days and 5 hours = 287.5 miles in 53 hours = 5.42 mph

Therefore, the correct answers are:

-The equation that represents the approximate distance Aaron's dog sled team travels over time is Y = 5.32X.

-The equation that represents the approximate distance Dallas' dog sled team travels over time is Y = 5.48X.

-The equation that represents the approximate distance Mitch's dog sled team travels over time is Y = 5.42X.
