First, set up variables for each runner to calculate the time:
x = faster runner
x + 0.5 = slower runner

Next, set up an equation:
9x = 6(x + 0.5)
9x = 6x + 3
3x = 3
x = 1

Since both of the runners are starting at the same place and running on the same trail, they will run the same distance. They both ran 1 mile.

What is the slope of this line?<br><br> A. -1/2<br> B. 1/2<br> C. -2<br> D. 2
SVEN [57.7K]

We can find the slope of this line by using the slope formula:

\frac{y.2 - y.1}{x.2 - x.1} = m

We'll use the points (-6, 0) and (0, -3)

(-3 - 0) / (0 + 6) = -3/6 = -0.5

The slope of the line is A, -1/2
