Rate = miles / time
8/t = 7/ 35
Dividing by 7
8/t = 7/ 35
8/ 7t = 1/ 35
Multiplying by t
8/7 = t/35
_____________
Options
1) 8/t = 35/ 7 (False, t/8 = 35/ 7 )
2) t/8 = 7/ 35 (False, t/8 = 35/ 7 )
3) 8/7 = t/ 35 (TRUE)
4) 7/8 = t/35 (False, 8/7 = t/ 35 )

Answer
3) 8/7 = t/ 35 (TRUE)
Answer:
The correct option is 1.
Step-by-step explanation:
It is given that the Brian, Kelsey, and Geoff each have a remote-controlled car. They simultaneously started their cars and drove them in a straight line away from a motion sensor.
It means they are travelling at a constant rate.
Slope formula:
From the given table it is clear that the of Brian's car from the sensor is 34 at 1 sec and 38 at 3 sec. The rate of change is
It means the Brian's car traveled at the rate of 2 cm per sec.
From the given table it is clear that the of Brian's car from the sensor is 27 at 1 sec and 31 at 3 sec. The rate of change is
It means the Kelsey's car traveled at the rate of 2 cm per sec.
From the given table it is clear that the of Brian's car from the sensor is 27 at 1 sec and 33 at 3 sec. The rate of change is
It means the Geoff's car traveled at the rate of 3 cm per sec.
Since Brian's and Geoff's car traveled at the same rate, therefore option 1 is correct.
