A question on a test asks

students to find the speed at which a car travels.
The graph shows a proportional relationship
between the distance traveled in miles and time
in hours. Billy incorrectly says that the speed of the car is 1/56 mile per hour. What is the speed of the car? What error might Billy have made?
