This table represents Driver A.



Time (h): 0.5


2


3.5


5


Number of miles driven: 31.25


125


218.75


312.5




Which equation could represent Driver B?



Time in hours is represented by x and number of miles driven is represented by y.



Select each correct answer.



a.) y = 64x



b.) y = 66x



c.) y = 62x



d.) y = 60x

Answer 1

1.25 is only for half a unit of y. Multiply 31.25 by 2. That's 62.5. Everything greater than 62.5 is an answer. (A, C, and D)
