Answer: a. To create the graph, we need to find the speed (in km/min) of Lin and Andre. The speed is calculated as distance divided by time.

For Lin: speed = 1.5 km / 5 min = 0.3 km/min

For Andre: speed = 2 km / 8 min = 0.25 km/min

We can plot these speeds as points on a graph with time on the x-axis and speed on the y-axis.

b. The point for Lin is (5, 0.3) and for Andre is (8, 0.25).

c. From the graph, we can see that Lin was biking faster, with a speed of 0.3 km/min compared to Andre's speed of 0.25 km/min.
