Question

Joseph ran a 6 mile race in 48 minutes. which graph has a slope that best represents Joseph average rate of speed during the race?

Answer 1

First we need to know in one mile how much time he spend

6 mile ---- 48 min

1 mile ---- x

$x=\frac{1\cdot48}{6}=8$

1 mile ----- 8 minutes

this relation we must find it in the graph

and the line needs to start in 0,0

so with this in mind the only graph that starts in (0,0) and have a point in (8,1) is G
