CASE 1

RUNNER RUNNER

In Runner Runner, two female suspects escape a routine traffic stop, sparking a pursuit where time and distance calculations become crucial. Witness statements provide scattered clues, requiring students to piece together the suspects' potential route by analysing speeds, distances, and timing discrepancies. Math skills like solving distance-rate-time equations and interpreting linear relationships are essential as students retrace steps, checking inconsistencies in accounts and predicting possible hideouts based on the time needed to reach each point on the suspects' route.

The Case:
In this investigation, students will tackle time and distance problems to analyze crucial data from witness statements. By examining the timeline of sightings and distances between locations, they will use speed-distance-time calculations to reconstruct the likely route of the fleeing suspects. With each witness account, students will determine consistency by calculating travel times, helping narrow down possible escape routes. Ultimately, students will use these math principles to predict the suspects' movements and identify potential hideouts or places of interest along the route.
