Math Problem Statement
Based on the scatterplot, how many minutes would it take Carley to run a 4-kilometer race?
Solution
Based on the scatterplot, we can estimate the time it would take Carley to run a 4-kilometer race by identifying the points that correspond to her pace during the race.
Looking at the graph:
- On the y-axis (distance in kilometers), find the point where the distance is 4 kilometers.
- Trace this point horizontally to the x-axis (time in minutes) to determine the approximate time it takes to cover 4 kilometers.
By observing the pattern of the scatterplot, we can see that Carley runs at a relatively consistent pace. We should expect the time for 4 kilometers to fall somewhere in the range of the given data.
Let me know if you'd like me to calculate this more precisely, or if you'd like further details about the graph!
