Question

The graph shows the distance Caleb runs over time. Whats the slope of the line and the equation? ​

Answer 1

slope = 1/8

equation: y = 1/8 x

Explanation:

Let distance = y.

Let time = x.

y = mx + b

Look at point (1, 8).

Also, the line passes through (0, 0).

slope = m = 1/8

Since it is a direct proportion, b = 0.

Equation: y = 1/8 x
