Question

Match each graph to the data it goes with. Explain your reasoning.

Answer 1

The interpretation of the graphs are:

• Jesse walks 4 miles per hour for 4 hours.
• Mikes walks 3 miles per hour for 5 hours.
• Josh walks 4.5 miles per hour for 4 hours.
• Brad walks 3.5 miles per hour for 5 hours.

How to match each graph to the data it goes with?

The given graphs pass through the origin

So, the slopes of the graphs are

Slope = y/x

Where x and y are ordered pairs on the line of the graph

Graph A

(x, y) = (4, 16)

Slope = 16/4

Slope = 4

This means that Jesse walks 4 miles per hour for 4 hours.

Graph B

(x, y) = (5, 15)

Slope = 15/5

Slope = 3

This means that Mikes walks 3 miles per hour for 5 hours.

Graph C

(x, y) = (4, 18)

Slope = 18/4

Slope = 4.5

This means that Josh walks 4.5 miles per hour for 4 hours.

Graph D

(x, y) = (5, 17.5)

Slope = 17.5/5

Slope = 3.5

This means that Brad walks 3.5 miles per hour for 5 hours.
