-Use the table below to record the miles walked and the money earned for miles 0 through 6

- Write a rule relating miles walked to money collected

Answer 1

r = 5m

Explanation:

miles walked money earned

0 0

1 1*5 5

2 2 * 5 10

3 3 * 5 15

4 4 * 5 20

5 5 * 5 25

6 6 * 5 30

We multiply 5 by each mile walked to determine how much money was raised

r = 5m where r is the money raised and m is the miles walked
