Question

Anne runs at a constant rate. The table shows the distance she traveled at specific times during her run.

What is the slope of the line that represents Anne’s speed?



Anne’s Speed
Minutes 5 10 15 20
Distance (mi) 0.625 1.25 1.875 2.5

Answer 1

Anne's speed would be shown by a line that starts to increase and then stays at the same rate through out the rest of her running time.

Answer 2

the slope/gradient is positive, and would be 0.125
