Mrs. Leary wants to buy some plants and potting soil. Each plant costs $2.50 and each bag of potting soil costs $3.25. Mrs. Leary wants to spend no more than $50. If Mrs. Leary buys 4 bags of potting soil, which inequality represents the number of plants, p, that she may buy?

- "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."
