               Joanne and Laura are jogging together. Laura
               soon gets ahead of Joanne.
               Laura jogs at 4 m per second (4 m/s) and
               Joanne jogs at 3 m per second (3 m/s).
               a)  Write down the equation for the
                    distance (D) covered by Laura in terms                1      2   3   4   5   6    7   8

                    Distance (m)


                    Use the set of axes                         Distance that Joanne and Laura jog
                   shown and draw a graph
                   to show the distance         200
                   that Laura jogs on a
                    piece of graph paper.
               d)  Express the distance (D)
                                                150
                   Joanne jogs in terms of
                   the time she took (t).

               e)  Make a table of values to
                   plot Joanne's graph.         100

               f)  On the same set of axes,
                   draw a graph to show the
                   distance that Joanne jogs.
               g)  Who covered more
                   distance in 50 seconds?
