Question

Select the correct answer.

Answer 1

Answer:

Jonathan and Seth have the same rate i.e 1/2 laps/minute.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided table.

To find the rate use the formula $\frac{laps}{minutes}$

Calculate the rate for each swimmers.

Jonathan:

He completed 2 laps in 4 minutes. Thus the rate is:

$\frac{laps}{minutes} = \frac{2}{4} = \frac{1}{2}$ lap/minute

Julian:

Julian completed 1 laps in 1 minutes. Thus the rate is:

$\frac{laps}{minutes} = \frac{1}{1} =1$ lap/minute

Seth:

Seth completed 3 laps in 6 minutes. Thus the rate is:

$\frac{laps}{minutes} = \frac{3}{6} =\frac{1}{2}$ lap/minute

Bennett:

Bennett completed 7 laps in 21 minutes. Thus the rate is:

$\frac{laps}{minutes} = \frac{7}{21} =\frac{1}{3}$ lap/minute

Taylor:

Taylor completed 4 laps in 7 minutes. Thus the rate is:

$\frac{laps}{minutes} = \frac{4}{7}$ lap/minute

From the above calculation it is clear that Jonathan and Seth have the same rate i.e 1/2 laps/minute.
