A tortoise challenged a hare to a 100-meter race on a track. The tortoise negotiated a 60-meter head start with the hare. When they passed their respective starting points the hare was running at a constant speed of 3.6 meters per second and the tortoise was crawling at a speed of 0.7 meters per second. (They both maintained these speeds for the entire race.) Our goal is to determine who won the race. Take out a piece of paper and read the above problem statement again. In a couple of sentences, describe how you might determine who won the race. Construct a drawing to represent the 100-meter length of the track. Then place the tortoise and hare's starting points on the track. Define the variable t to represent the number of seconds since the start of the race.

Mary beth used the mapping rule to find the coordinates of a point that had been rotated 90° counterclockwise around the origin. examine the steps to determine whether she made an error. m (3, –6) is rotated 90° counterclockwise. (x, y) → (–y, x) 1. switch the x- and y-coordinates: (6, –3) 2. multiply the new x-coordinate by –1: (6(–1), –3) 3. simplify: (–6, –3) .
