Question

Can someone help me with this math homework please!

Answer 1

10

Explanation:

Let,

Distance = 0.5 miles

Time = 5 minutes

Formula : -

Slope = Rise / Run

Speed

= 5 / 0.5

= 50 / 5

= 10 minutes per mile

Answer 2

Using the two dots they have given us, we can figure out the rise/run

Rise is the vertical distance between the points and run is the horizontal distance between the points

Rise = 10

Run = 1

Rise / Run

10 / 1 = 10

The runners speed is 10mins per mile
