A tortoise and a hare are running in a race you are asked to prepare graphs similar to those in your reading material to graph the progress of each animal during the race as in the text distance is t?
O
A tortoise runs at 12 cms and a hare can run 20 times faster In a race they both start at the same time but the hare stops for 4 min and the tortoise wins by 35 cm Find his time and length of the race?
Solution: Tortoise travels at 12 so T_v*time = Distance Hare travels at 240 so H_v*(time - 240 seconds) = Distance - 35cm or Distance = H_v*(time - 240 seconds)+35cm Set them equal to each other and solve for "time". Then multiply time and the T_v to find the length of the race. --- The tortoise is traveling at 12 cm/sec and the hare at 240 cm/sec. When the tortoise has run for the time T in seconds, the values produce the equation 12 T = 240 (T-240) +35 Solving for T 240 T - 57600 + 35 = 12T 228 T = 57565 T = 252.478 seconds for the tortoise, traveling about 30.3 meters (3029.736 cm) Tortoise 12 x 252.478 = 3029.736 cm Hare 240 x 12.478 = 2994.720 cm (only runs 12.5 seconds, comes up short) Tortoise wins by 35.016 cm
