Answer:
250 m/min
Explanation:
Split rate = [tex]\dfrac{2\text{min}}{500\text{m}}[/tex]
This means in 2 minutes they will cover 500 meters.
The rowing rate is given by [tex]\dfrac{\text{m}}{\text{min}}[/tex] which is the inverse of the first expression
[tex]\\\Rightarrow \text{Rowing rate}=\dfrac{\text{m}}{\text{min}}\\\Rightarrow \text{Rowing rate}=\frac{500}{2}\\\Rightarrow \text{Rowing rate}=250\ m/min[/tex]
Hence, the rowing rate is 250 m/min
