Answer:

Scenario 1 represents a greater speed

Explanation:

scenario 1 - find equation of line on graph to compare

- use the points given to find the slope

rate = slope = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1) = (240-60)/(4-1) = 60

y intercept = 0

line equation -> y = 60x

for every mile, 60 miles are traveled

scenario 2 - interpret the equation

for every mile, 50 miles are traveled

Scenario 1 represents a greater speed
