A tortoise is moving at a rate of 2 feet per minute, while a hare is running at a rate of 8 feet per minute. If the tortoise had a head start of 180 feet, how long will it take for the tortoise and hare to meet?

If the variables that represent the scenario are f for distance in feet and m for time in minutes, which equation represents the hare’s run?

f = 2m + 8m
f = 2m + 180
f = 8m + 180
f = 8m

Respuesta :

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer: f = 8m. They are asking for the equation that represents the hare’s run, which they said “the hare is running at a rate of 8 feet per minute”, so f (the distance in feet) is equal to the 8 feet per minute that the hare runs.

Answer:

D. f=8m
