<span>b/a=c/d
Two lines are parallel to each other if they have the same slope. So let's look at the options and see which one matches that statement.
b/aâ‹…c/d=â’1
* This is checking to see if the two lines are perpendicular to each other. Almost the exact opposite of parallel. So this is the wrong answer.
b/a=c/d
* b/a is a legitimate slope. c/d is also a good slope. And they're being checked to see if they're equal to each other. So this is the correct answer. But let's see if the next two options will give us a chuckle or two.
b/a=d/c
* b/a is OK. d/c almost looks ok, check the figure. And d/c is NOT a slope. The slope is delta Y over delta X. And d/c is delta X over delta Y. The inverse of the slope. So comparing those two values is meaningless. So it's a wrong answer.
b/aâ‹…d/c=â’1
* And they're trying the inverse of the slope trick again. WRONG. And they're checking if it's perpendicular. Also wrong. So definitely not a good choice.</span>

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The table shows how the time it takes a train to travel between two cities depends on its average speed.
function models the time, y, in hours, that it takes the train to travel between the two cities at an average speed of x miles per hour
y represents the time
and x represents the average speed
WE know distance = speed * times
LEts find the distance using the table
distance = 32* 5= 160
40*4= 160
50*3.2 = 160
Time = distance / speed
times is y , distance is 160 and speed is x
multiply both sides by .4 to isolate the x variable.
x = 1.6
