Question

The graph shows the distance a car traveled, y, in x hours:

Answer 1

The correct answer is 35

Answer 2

Answer:

The rise-over-run value for the relationship is 35.

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph shows the distance a car traveled 'y' in 'x' hours.

x represents time in hours,

y represents distance in miles.

The line passes through the points (1,35), (2, 70) and (3, 105).

The rise-over-run is the gradient or slope of a line, which measures how steep it is.

Slope of the line passing through (1,35), (2, 70) is,

$m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\\\=\dfrac{70-35}{2-1}\\\\=\dfrac{35}{1}\\\\=35$
