Answer: Choice B

They traveled 250 miles in 4 hours. Their speed was 62.5 mph.

=============================================================

Explanation:

Start at point X. Draw a horizontal line straight across until you reach the y axis. You should arrive at y = 250. This tells us that they traveled 250 miles.

Go back to point X. Draw a vertical line until you reach the x axis. You should reach x = 4. This indicates 4 hours.

Pairing up the two values together means they traveled 250 miles in 4 hours. Divide the distance over time to get the speed

speed = distance/time = 250/4 = 62.5 miles per hour

--------

Side note: unfortunately your teacher chose the label uppercase X for the point, which may be a bit confusing since it could clash with the lowercase x along the horizontal axis.

Another note: the speed represents the slope of the line

We see on the picture that :
When we go down one row, we add one horizontal and two diagonal cards.

In the first row we have 2 cards
In the second 2+3=5 cards
In the third 5+3=8 cards
etc.

General formula : in the n-th row from the top, we have $\boxed{ 2+(n-1)\cdot3\text{ cards}}$
