15% of 90 hours
15% of 90 hours

Okay, to do this, we need to do the Cross-Product Method. On one side, it will be x/90, and the other side will be 15/100. So, after we multiply 90 by 15, and also multiply 100 by x, out new equation is going to be 100x = 1350. After dividing 1350 by 100, we get 13.5

15% of 90 hours is 13.5 hours.

- "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."
