Answer:
Option C. The robin flies fastest because its rate is 15 m/s
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x -----> the time in seconds
y ----> the distance in meters
The speed is equal to divide the distance by the time
In this problem, the slope or unit rate of the linear equation is the same that the speed
<em>Robin's Flight</em>
<em>Find the slope</em>
The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to
take two points from the table
(2,30) and (3,45)
substitute in the formula

<em>Cardinal's Flight</em>


<em>Blue Jay's Flight</em>
take two points from the graph
(0,0) and (2,20)
substitute in the formula

1/2 - 3/8 = 4/8 - 3/8 = 1/8
you have to find a common denominator before you can subtract. in this case it is 8
Answer:
B) -3
Step-by-step explanation:
1. First you have to write the equation in slope intercept form. To do that, you must have y be alone on one side.
2. move the 3x to the right side with the 5 by subtracting 3x from both sides. Since 3x will cancel on the left, y will be left alone. 
3. Now that you're in slope intercept form, you can find the slope easily. The slope will always be the number in front of x. In this case, the number in front of x is -3. Therefore, -3 is your slope!
5^4 power. We can identify this because 5 is multiplying itself 4 times.
Hope this helps!
