Evaluate 5.5r8.35s when r12 and s4.

32.6

Step-by-step explanation:

when you plug in for s and r you will get 66-33.4 since 5.5 multiped by 12 is 66 and 8.35 multiplied by 4 is 33.4 .

then you subtract them and that's how you'll get your answer

- "runner b is moving at a slower rate."

- "the graphs shown are graphs of distance(km) against time(min).

the slopes of this graphs are are given by:

slope = (change in y)/(change in x)

= (change in distance)/(change in time)

this is the formula for finding the speed. so, the slope of these graphs represent the speed of the runner.

taking each division in the graph to represent 1 on both axis:

runner a ⇒ speed = (2-0)/(1-0)

= 2/1

= 2 km/min

runner b ⇒ speed = (3-0)/(3-0)

= 3/3

= 1 km/min

this shows that   runner b is moving at a slower rate."
