You have been selected by the member of your eighth grade team to participate in a one mile race on field day. Another student from team B will race against you. You are able to run 12 feet per second. Since the student from team B runs 10 feet per second, you have been asked to let him have a 1000-ft head start. If you both maintain the estimated rates would you be able to beat your opponent?
