Answer:

Daniel: y = 4x

Ryan: 3 boxes per hour

y = total number of boxes

--

h = hours

Ryan is able to pack 3 boxes in one hour. In multiple hours, the problem will be represented by the equation y = 3h.

--

So,

Ryan: y = 3h

Daniel: y = 4h

--

Based on our answers, we can conclude that when h increases, y also increases. Daniel's rate of packing boxes is higher than Ryan's, and therefore he has a greater rate of change, which means Daniel packs boxes faster in the same amount of time than Ryan.

Hope this helped :)
