Proportion problems 8 chickens would lay 20 eggs in 3 days.
If chickens always lay eggs at the same rate,
a) how many days would it take to chickens to lay 100 eggs?
= 10 days
b) how many chickens would be required if a farmer needed 30 eggs each day?
i need help how to do question b. i know answer bu,.t i need explaining.

- "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."
