Answer:
4.25
Step-by-step explanation:
The distance Bethany travels is directly proportional to the number of hours she spends working
The formula for direct proportion is :
y = kx
Where k is a constant
in this question, the constant is given by 4.25
Since it is parallel, the slopes are equal.
The equation of required line is:

where, $c$ is some constant we have to determine using additional conditions.
The condition is that the line passes through $(-2,4)$
Put (-2,4) in our equation.
$5(-2)+2(4)=c=(-10)+8=-2$
Hence, $c=-2$
The final equation is: $\boxed{5x+2y=-2}$
Convert this to the form in the options.
Answer is y=-5/2 x-1
Bus 1 : 194 miles / 4 hours = 48.5 miles / hour.
Bus 2: 245 miles / 5 hours = 49 miles / hour.
Bus 2 is faster.
The answer is ............................a
