Answer:
The term rate refers to a quantity of one item in relation to another item used as a standard. A popular example is speed. Speed is a measure of distance traveled through time and is measured as meters per second. Another example is acceleration, which is a measure of speed through time or simply how fast an object is gaining speed and is measured in meters per second squared.
Step-by-step explanation:
Example: For example, if it is a mile, you count how many feet are in that mile.
<span>1. First, label the axis on your graph, with units:
time on the x-axis, in units of hours;
distance on the y-axis, in units of miles.
2. Draw a graph of distance vs. time. Distance after the first hour = 69 miles, distance after the 2nd hour = 138 miles, etc.
3. Observe that this graph is a STRAIGHT LINE with constant slope. Therefore the relationship is PROPORTIONAL.
For every other kind of graph -- i.e. not a straight line -- the relationship is NON-PROPORTIONAL.

1.
In line with the test each person who came into interaction
with the infected person will become infected also. With this information, the
calculation would be: 9 people each day for 7days would be equivalent to 9 x 7
which equals 63 people.
2.
Here were 7 other people in the experiment if patient
zero is left out. If each person intermingled with 6 different people every day
in 7 days then the calculation would be: 7 people infected x 6 new people = 42
infected people each day
42 new people every day x 7 days = 294
infected persons.
7 5/12 or 7.41
17 1/21 or 17.04
