Math Homework Help

Person A: You ride your tricycle three meters every two seconds and start at the starting line. The race is 25 meters long. Person B: You get a six meter head start and ride twice as fast as Elizabeth. Person C: You ride half as fast as Leslie but get an eight meter head start. Person D: Your start at the starting line and catch up to Elizabeth in four seconds. Elizabeth: Elizabeth rides one merer for every four seconds ( because she has a flat tire) and gets a 10 meter head start. Leslie: Leslie rides two meters per second and starts two seconds after the start of the race.

How do you figure out who won and who lost? And an equation for each person?

Thanks for the help.
