The graph shows the distance, y, that a car traveled in x hours:A graph is shown with the x-axis title as Time in hours. The title on the y-axis is Distance Traveled in miles. The values on the x-axis are from 0 to 5 in increments of 1 for each grid line. The values on the y-axis are from 0 to 325 in increments of 65 for each grid line. A line is shown connecting ordered pairs 1, 65 and 2, 130 and 3, 195 and 4, 260. The title of the graph is Rate of Travel.What is the rate of change for the relationship represented in the graph?

Answer:

The rate of change is 65 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the ordered pairs (1, 65) and (2, 130)

The rate of change is given as:


(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)=(130-65)/(2-1)=(65)/(1)

The rate of change is 65 miles per hour
