Answer:

Explanation:

Susan = 50 miles per hour

Ellen = 60 miles per hour

Total miles to and from Newyork and Boston= 220 miles

In twenty minutes, Susan drives

50 miles = 60 minutes

1 minute= 50/60= 0.833 miles

20 minutes = 0.833×20=16.667 miles

Ellen is 60 miles per hour

Therefore she drives:

60 miles= 60 minutes

1 mile = 1 minute

In 1 hour 40 minutes Ellen would be 100 miles into getting to Boston and in 2 hours Susan would be 100 miles towards New York

IN YOUR OWN WORDS, write a paragraph or dot-points about why communication and teamwork is crucial in basketball.
borishaifa [10]

Teams that communicate well are more likely to achieve their goals. A sense of belonging and stronger relationships can be formed through frequent friendly conversation. Great teams are defined by their ability to communicate effectively. Players who communicate with each other are more likely to be on the same page and to work together as a team. Respect, honor, and discipline are just a few of the virtues that can be learned through good sportsmanship.
