THE RUNNERS.
We measure speed with the rate = distance/time.
S = 4
t
From this equation, find an equation d, distance and for t, time.

d=st
t=d/s
There are three runners who all run at different speeds. Their races are also three
different distances. The combined times of the two slower runners added together is
equal to the time of the fastest runner. The slowest runner is runner one and the
faster runner is runner three.
Your task is to find the speed of each runner, the distance that each runner travels,
and how long it takes him or her to complete their race.
The table below will give you some valuable information.
