Answer:

Relationship between distance and time in simplified form as a unit rate is;
(47)/(1)

Explanation:

Unit rate defined as the rates are expressed as a quantity of 1, such as 5 feet per second or 3 miles per hour, they are called unit rates.

Unit rate =
(distance)/(time)

From the given table:

Take any

time = 4 hours and distance= 188 miles

then, by definition of unit rate;

Unit rate =
(188)/(4) =(47)/(1)

Since, this is the constant rate.

Therefore, the relationship between distance and time in simplified form as a unit rate is;
(47)/(1)
