Question

A strong distance runner rates of 1 mi every 5 minutes.Which graph has a slope that best represents this rate? no each square on the graph represents one unit.

Answer 1

Given that the strong distance runner rates of 1 mi every 5 minutes.

If the distance in miles is on the y axis, and the Time in minutes is on the x axis.

The slope m is;

`\text{slope m=}(rise)/(run)=(dis\tan ce)/(time)=(1)/(5)`

From the given graphs,

The graph with the same slope as the given slope above is;

`D\text{. m=}(1)/(5)`

The graph that
