Question

Jalynn and Emma enjoy hiking. Jalynn hikes 1 mile in 20 minutes. Emma hikes at a rate of 3 miles per hour. On Sunday at 8:00 a.m., they both left the trail head. The line representing Jaylynn’s progress is graphed.

Answer 1

The equations are equivalent so there are an infinite number of solutions.

Both lines will have a y-intercept of (0,0) since both hikers start at 8:00 a.m.

As shown on the graph, both lines have a slope of 1/20 because one must convert to the same units of time.
