Question

use the table below to match the distance traveled by han with his rate, in minutes per lap. hans run distance (laps) time (minutes) minutes per lap 2 4 4 9 6 15 8 23 table showing data for hans run 2 laps a. 2.25 minutes per lap 4 laps b. 2.875 minutes per lap 6 laps c. 2.5 minutes per lap 8 laps d. 2 minutes per lap

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate rate for 2 laps

To find minutes per lap, divide time by distance. For 2 laps in 4 minutes, the rate is $\frac{4}{2}=2$ minutes per lap.

Step2: Calculate rate for 4 laps

For 4 laps in 9 minutes, the rate is $\frac{9}{4} = 2.25$ minutes per lap.

Step3: Calculate rate for 6 laps

For 6 laps in 15 minutes, the rate is $\frac{15}{6}=2.5$ minutes per lap.

Step4: Calculate rate for 8 laps

For 8 laps in 23 minutes, the rate is $\frac{23}{8}=2.875$ minutes per lap.

Answer:

2 laps - d. 2 minutes per lap
4 laps - a. 2.25 minutes per lap
6 laps - c. 2.5 minutes per lap
8 laps - b. 2.875 minutes per lap
