Christina's time for a race was 22.3 seconds. Another​ runner's time was 4.41 seconds faster. Write and evaluate an equation with a variable to find the difference between Christina​'s time and the other​ runner's time.

Respuesta :

Answer:

[tex]Difference = 4.41[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Represent Christina's time with C and the other runner's time with R

C = 22.3

R = 4.41 + C

Required

Determine the difference using an equation

The difference between both runner's time is as follows;

[tex]Difference = R - C[/tex]

Substitute 4.41 + C for R

[tex]Difference = 4.41 + C - C[/tex]

[tex]Difference = 4.41[/tex]

Hence, the difference is 4.41 seconds
