d. $0.53 because..
3/5.25 = 1/1.75
5/9.75 = 1.95
7/12.60 = 1.80
10/14.20 = 1.42
12/18.24 = 1.52
then do ;
most expensive deal - least expensive deal = how much he’ll save
1.95 - 1.42 = .53

The coyote can run 48 more miles than the rabbit
Considering there is a function (relationship) and that it is linear, the distance will change proportionally to time constantly. In other words, we are taking the speed to be constant throughout the journey.
If we let:
t = time (min's) driving
d = distance (miles) from destination
Then we can represent the above information as:
t = 40: d = 59
t = 52: d = 50
If we think of this as a graph, we can think of the x-axis representing time and the y-axis representing the distance to the destination. Being linear, the function will be a line, i.e. it will have a constant gradient. If you were plot the two points inferred from the information and connect the two dots, you will get a declining line (one with a negative gradient) representing the inversely proportional relationship or equally, the negative correlation between the time driving and the distance to the destination. The equation of this line will be the linear function that relates time and the distance to the destination. To find this linear function, we do as follows:
Find the gradient (m) of the line:
m = Δy/Δx
In this case, the x-values are t-values and our y-values are d-values, so:
Δy = Δd
= 50 - 59
= -9
Δx = Δt
= 52 - 40
= 12
m = -9/12 = -3/4
Note: m is equivalent to speed with units: d/t
Use formula to find function and rearrange to give it in the desired format:
y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)
d - 50 = -3/4(t - 52)
4d - 200 = -3t + 156
4d + 3t - 356 = 0
Let t = 70 to find d at the time:
4d + 3(70) - 356 = 0
4d + 210 - 356 = 0
4d - 146 = 0
4d = 146
d = 73/2 = 36.5 miles
So after 70 min's of driving, Dale will be 36.5 miles from his destination.
Answer:
D. -2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Since it is going down, it is negative
Think of this: Rise/Run
In this case, rise is when you are going up or down the graph
Run is when you are going to the right of the graph
Let's use 2 points (0,3) and (3,1)
Since you are going three points to the right we are going to put 3 in for run
You are going 2 places down, so we are going put -2 in for rise
This gives us -2/3
Another way to do this is (1-3)/(3-0) = -2/3
