Unit 3, Lesson 2: Practice Problems
1.
The tortoise and the hare are having a race. After the hare runs 16 miles the tortoise has
only run 4 miles.
The relationship between the distance the tortoise "runs" in miles for every y miles
the hare runs is y = 4x. Graph this relationship (equation). (remember y-4x is the same
as y-4x+0. Think about where you start and how much do you move?)
hare distance (miles) y- axis 2 4 6 8 10 12 14 16 18 20
tortoise distance (miles)x-axis 0.5 1 1.5 2 2.5 3 3.5 4 4.5 5
