Question

Jeremy rides his bike at a rate of 12 miles per hour. The table below

represents the number of hours and miles Kevin rides. Assume both bikers
ride at a constant rate.

Answer 1

A) Jeremy has the greater speed.

B) y = 23x

C) See graph

D) The slope is 23. This means that Lauren can travel 23 miles in 1 hour.

Explanation:

Part A:

Kevin's rate is 11.5 miles per hour.

Take two points, I used (2,23) and (4,46) to find the rate for Kevin.

Find the change in y over the change in x. The y values are 46 and 23. The x values are 4 and 2. You find the change by subtracting

`(46-23)/(4-2)` =
`(23)/(2)` = 11.5

Part B:

If Kevin's rate is 11.5, then Lauren's rate is 23

Part C:

See graph

Part D :

The slope for C is 23. This means that Lauren can ride 23 miles in one hour.
