  1. 1. Make a table showing the distance from the starting line at several different times during the first 40 seconds. How can the table be used to find the length of the race?


2. Graph the time and distance from the starting line on the same set of axes. How can the graph be used to find the length of the race?




3. Write and equation representing the relationship between time and distance. Explain what each number and each variable represents.

Emile:


Henri:


4. How does the walking rate of each brother show up in the graph, the table, and the equation?

3. Is the point (26, 70) on either graph?

4. When will Emile overtake Henri? Explain.
