Question

Angelo runs 7 mile per week and increases his distance 1 mile per week. Marc runs 4 miles per week and increases his distance 2 miles per week. In how many weeks will Angelo and Marc be running the same distance? What will it be?

Answer 1

Okay, so what you do here is plot points on a graph

Answer 2

1. Plot an x = weeks vs y = miles chart

2. Then plot points for Angelo

(1, 7)
(2, 8)
(3, 9)
(4, 10)


3. Next plot points for Marc:

(1,4)
(2,6)
(3,8)
(4,10)

Then as you can see, they will meet on the fourth week and will have both run ten miles.
