Slippery Slope
Two professional downhill skiers are going to begin a race. The skiers agree that Skier 1 is
slightly faster than Skier 2 so they decide that Skier 2 will get a 5 second head start to make the
race more competitive. Skier 1 skies at an average speed of 110 feet per second and Skier 2
skies at an average speed of 100 feet per second.
Who will win the race if the course is 5000 feet long?

Respuesta :

Answer:

It would be a tie

Step-by-step explanation:

Skeir 1 in 5000 feet would go 45 seconds.

Skier 2 in 5000 feet would go 50 seconds

If skier 1 lets skeir 2 have a head start, then it means that that it would be 50-5, which would be 45.
