AN ANCIENT FABLE In Aesop’s fable about the race between the tortoise and the hare, the tortoise trudges along at a slow, constant rate from start to finish. The hare starts out running steadily at a much more rapid pace, but halfway to the finish line, stops to take a nap. Finally, the hare wakes up, sees the tortoise near the finish line, desperately resumes his old rapid pace, and is nosed out by a hair. On the same coordinate plane, graph the respective distances of the tortoise and the hare from the starting line regarded as functions of time.
