Two swimming teams are competing in a 400 meter medley relay. During the last leg of the race,
the swimmer in lane 1 has a 1.7 second head start on the swimmer in lane 2. The swimmer in
lane 1 is swimming at 1.9 m/sec. The swimmer in lane 2 is swimming at 2.3 m/sec.
Lett be the time since the swimmer in lane 2 started the last leg. After how many seconds into
the leg will the swimmer in lane 2 catch up with the swimmer in lane 1?
I completed a table, swimmer 1 started with 1.7 while swimmer 2 started with 0. After adding 1.9 to swimmer 1 each time and 2.3 for swimmer 2, swimmer 2 caught up at 4 seconds
