Question

8th Grade Functions: Bike Race

Answer 1

Answer:

Juan wins the race

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question is attached.

Time is on the horizontal axis.

Distance is on the vertical axis.

If you look first at y-axis (vertical), you will see that both lines (curves) go upto a distance of 4 miles. So, the race is of 4 miles. Both of them finish.

Now,

If you look at the corresponding x-axis value of where each curve ends, you will see:

Antonio finishes at 15 mins

Juan finishes at 13 minutes

So we can successfully say that Juan wins the race since he finishes 2 mins faster than Antonio.

Juan wins the race
